    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, May 4 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; In a move which would boost Indian pharmaceutical industry and medicine exporters, China has removed import duties on as many as 28 medicines, including all cancer drugs, from May 1.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Chinese Ambassador to India Luo Zhaohui, in a tweet, said, China has exempted import tariffs (duties) for 28 drugs, including all cancer drugs, from May 1st. Good news for Indias pharmaceutical industry and medicine export to China. I believe this will help reduce trade imbalance between China and India in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The move will help in giving Indian exporters a greater market in China. The trade deficit with China, which has always been a cause of worry, stood at USD 36.73 billion during April-October 2017-18. It was USD 51 billion in 2016-17.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Zhaohui also said that China would further improve business environment by halving time required to open a business.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Chinas door to the outside world will open wider. Indian businesses are welcome, he added.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;India too has sought investments from China. The neighbouring country has agreed to set up Industry Park in India to increase investments and bridge trade deficit.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
