NEW DELHI: India and France on Monday concluded an Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) on the sale of 36 French fighter jets, Rafale, but were unable to sign the final deal due to some "financial" aspects, which are expected to be sorted out within one month.This agreement was among the 14 pacts signed between the two countries after extensive talks between PM Narendra Modi and visiting French President Francois Hollande which focused ways to enhance cooperation in counter- terrorism, civil nuclear energy, defence, space and smart cities among other issues.Both sides also agreed on a roadmap of cooperation to speed up discussions on the Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project in 2016. Their shared aim is to start the implementation of the project in early 2017. An MoU between NPCIL and French power company EDF is already under negotiation for setting up six reactors at Jaitapur. This is revised MoU as earlier signatory French nuclear major Areva is now under EDF and undergoing restructuring.The idea now is to reach agreement on all six reactors at one go so that costs can be lowered and companies encouraged to Make in India. "Leaving out financial aspect, India and France have signed Inter-Governmental Agreement on purchase of 36 Rafale fighter jets. We expect even the financial aspects to be resolved as soon as possible," Modi said at a joint press event with Hollande. Terming the signing of the IGA as a "decisive" step, the French President said there are some financial issues that will be sorted out in "couple of days".Briefing about the outcome of the Indo-French summit, Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar sais, "There has been considerable progress in the negotiations but the financial side is yet to been agreed on. There was a MoU which was signed between the two Defence Ministers pertaining to the IGA. There will be offsets in the agreement. As of now its fly away condition of aircraft," Jaishankar said.
