It is a historic day for New Zealand's international relations as one of the world's most powerful leaders, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is set to touch down in Auckland, the first visit by an Indian Prime Minister in 40 years.

Modi's visit comes off the back of the landmark FTA deal.

Trade Minister Todd McClay joined Andrew Dickens to discuss the visit. 

"You know, the wider business community is going to be turning out. There's a formal lunch tomorrow with a lot of business leaders and sectors that are going to benefit from the FDA," McClay said.
