Two of Asia's most consequential powers have chosen, at least for a moment, the language of dialogue over the grammar of rivalry. Xi Jinping's arrival in India this week is less a resolution than a gesture — a signal that Beijing and New Delhi recognize the cost of perpetual antagonism between nuclear-armed neighbors bound by geography and ambition. The handshakes are real, but so are the Himalayan scars and the boardrooms where mutual suspicion still governs the terms of engagement.

Limited immediate consumer impact, but potential long-term benefits if diplomatic thaw leads to increased trade competition, lower import prices, and expanded consumer goods availability. However, persistent business suspicion may delay these benefits.
Governments may pursue confidence-building measures in trade agreements, regulatory harmonization, and joint investment frameworks. Both nations may implement policies to reduce tariff barriers and facilitate business partnerships, though security concerns may limit technology sector cooperation.
