Frequently asked — Toufen

Who are the AJG principals?
AJG has two founding principals: Vinod Kumar Jain (India Principal) based in Panchkula, Haryana — with 50+ years of experience in pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and import-export; and Amit Jain (EU Principal) based in Porto, Portugal — a digital generalist holding a D2 Entrepreneur Visa and a PGDip in Global Marketing. Together they cover India-EU, India-UAE, and global trade corridors.
Where is AJG based?
AJG operates from two bases: India — Panchkula, Haryana (proximate to Delhi, Punjab, Chandigarh industrial belt); and EU — London, United Kingdom (EU D2 Entrepreneur Visa, full EU market access). The website AllfrontierGlobal.com is hosted on Nestify servers.
What is the difference between a mandate and a franchise?
A mandate is a specific trade transaction AJG is facilitating. A franchise is an ongoing relationship where a franchisee uses the AJG platform and brand to originate and work mandates in their territory. Mandate commissions go to AJG; franchise arrangements share commissions between AJG and the franchisee.
What is an FTA and why does it matter?
A Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is a treaty between countries to eliminate or reduce import tariffs and other trade barriers. For Indian exporters, an FTA means goods can enter the partner country at 0% or reduced duty instead of the standard MFN tariff — directly improving price competitiveness. AJG optimises every mandate to use applicable FTA routes.
What is the difference between FTA and GSP?
GSP (Generalised System of Preferences) is a unilateral preference scheme — the importing country gives India a reduced tariff as a developing country. An FTA is a bilateral negotiated agreement. GSP preferences are typically 3-12% reduction; FTA preferences are usually 0% (full elimination). India' EU GSP provides ~3.5% preference; India-EU FTA will give 0% — a major improvement.
How does the India-ASEAN FTA work?
India-ASEAN AIFTA (in force 2010) provides preferential tariff rates between India and 10 ASEAN nations. India exporters to ASEAN pay reduced or zero duty on goods meeting 35% ASEAN/India regional value content. The FTA covers goods; a separate services agreement covers IT and professional services. ASEAN nations covered: Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Brunei.
