So, the emergence of opportunities from trade between both nations is an important and ongoing area of research. Being most fastest growing major economies in the world, growth of relations between the duos is also a matter of significance in the sense to get befitted from the rich bilateral relationship in the form of comparative advantage from export and import following the international pattern in exchange of goods. The present paper tries to identify the sectors in which the two economies have comparative advantages for the continuation of international trade. Thus the aim of the paper is to identify product groups that are of great significance to develop and enrich India-Brazil trade relations.
