India–New Zealand customs cooperation was reported on 21 October. The topic links digital exchange of origin information to the use of trade preferences. Distinguish the cooperation memorandum from the trade agreement itself.
Correct answer: D — Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs. CBIC is the customs authority named in this goods-trade arrangement. The close-looking CBDT option is a different board, so the word customs is the useful discriminator. Origin information concerns where traded goods qualify as originating; it is not a record of the nationality of the person buying them. CBIC and the New Zealand Customs Service signed the electronic origin-data cooperation memorandum on 19 October 2026. The associated FTA entered into force on 20 October. The arrangement supports information exchange for goods trade; the PIB report was published on 21 October. Official source: Press Information Bureau
