British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak could face some transparency questions related to wife Akshata Murty’s Infosys shares, worth an estimated 500 million pounds, in a proposed Free Trade Agreement (F.T.A.) with India, according to a media report.
Part of media claims the Opposition Labour Party and trade experts are questioning the full financial impact as Infosys, the Bengaluru-headquartered software service major co-founded by Akshata’s father Narayana Murthy, stands to benefit from any such trade deal.
India and the U.K. have been negotiating an F.T.A., now in its 12th round of negotiations, as Rishi Sunak prepares for his first visit to India as British Prime Minister for the coming G20 Leaders’ Summit.
