On 15 September 2026 , Consul General Xu Wei met with Mr. Mehul Mohanka, Chairman of the Eastern Region of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII). The two sides exchanged views on implementing the BRICS cooperation consensus reached by Chinese and Indian leaders and deepening bilateral economic and trade cooperation.

Consul General Xu Wei noted that under the strategic guidance of the leaders of the two countries, bilateral relations have improved and developed, yielding positive outcomes in exchanges and cooperation across various fields. During the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi recently, President Xi Jinping met with Prime Minister Modi. The two leaders reached an important consensus that "China and India should be partners". China stands ready to work with India to focus on development, expand mutually beneficial cooperation, and advance the sound and steady development of bilateral economic and trade ties. The Chinese Consulate General will serve as a bridge to help deliver tangible outcomes for the eastern Indian business community in their cooperation with China.

Mohanka briefed Consul General Xu Wei on the Confederation of Indian Industry and his enterprise. He stated that as two large neighbouring countries and emerging economies, India and China boast enormous potential for business cooperation. The CII places a high priority on the Chinese market and is ready to fully leverage its Shanghai office as a bridge to further expand commercial exchanges with China. He also welcomed Chinese business delegations to visit eastern India to jointly advance bilateral economic and trade cooperation.
