GRSE, a public sector unit under India\u2019s Ministry of Defence, confirmed the cancellation in a stock exchange filing on May 21.<\/p>\n<p>According to The Hindu, GRSE stated that the cancellation was anticipated and followed \u201cmutual discussions\u201d with the Bangladesh government.<\/p>\n<p>The company added that the financial impact would be negligible, as the order represented just 0.8% of its \u20b922,680.75 crore ($2.7 billion) order book as of March 31, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>No official reason was given by Dhaka. However, as reported by Business Standard, analysts view the move as a possible retaliation for New Delhi\u2019s recent imposition of import restrictions on Bangladeshi goods.<\/p>\n<p>On May 18, India tightened controls at Integrated Check Posts in its northeastern region, affecting shipments of ready-made garments and processed foods.<\/p>\n<p>These measures followed India&#8217;s earlier decision to withdraw a transshipment facility that had enabled Bangladeshi goods to reach third countries via Indian territory.<\/p>\n<p>The diplomatic setback comes amid a broader shift in Bangladesh\u2019s foreign policy posture following the departure of Sheikh Hasina\u2019s administration in August 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The ocean-going tug, while modest in budgetary terms, had been a strategic symbol of India-Bangladesh defence cooperation. Its cancellation underscores a deterioration in that relationship.<\/p>\n<p>In a press release on May 22, GRSE said it had been selected as the lowest bidder for the Indian Navy\u2019s Next Generation Corvette (NGC) programme.<\/p>\n<p>The company, based in Kolkata, has delivered 111 warships to Indian maritime forces and friendly foreign navies, including missile and anti-submarine corvettes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>India-Bangladesh tensions rise amid trade curbs and political crackdow<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>India-Bangladesh relations have deteriorated in recent months due to escalating trade restrictions and political developments.<\/p>\n<p>India has restricted imports of Bangladeshi garments to select ports, impacting exports worth $700 million annually. It has also blocked Bangladeshi consumer goods at 11 northeastern land ports and ended a key transit facility for Bangladeshi exports to third countries via Indian routes.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Bangladesh halted yarn imports from India through land ports in mid-April.<\/p>\n<p>Despite being India\u2019s largest trading partner in the region during FY24, and India ranking as Bangladesh\u2019s second-largest export market, trade ties have cooled sharply.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Bangladesh\u2019s interim government has banned the <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/tribune.com.pk\/story\/2547547\/ban-on-awami-league-divides-bd-voters\">Awami League<\/a>\u2014the party of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina\u2014under anti-terrorism laws, citing security concerns.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listen\u00a0to\u00a0article Bangladesh has cancelled a $21 million defence contract with India\u2019s state-owned Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers Ltd (GRSE), amid growing strain in bilateral relations.
