This paper intends to assess direction and effectiveness of trade policy of Nepal by studying Trade Development between India and Nepal.

This study is based on the secondary data of trade published by the government agency including Center Bureau of Statistics, Ministry of Finance, Trade Promotion Center etc and the World Bank, Asian Development Bank.
