Decent attempt, structure of the answer is good.. Content is also fine.
Intro is good, role of trade deals part is also okay.
In next part, points are fine but a bit generic, some technicalities can be picked up from the article and incorporated such as need to ensure similar returns for Indian exporters as their counterparts in the partner countries under preferential tariff systems, presence of offset clauses, contingency plans to tackle untoward situations like US removing India from GSP, sunset clauses etc
Points about parity in services, rules of origin etc are good.
Conclusion is fine.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Good introduction, role of FTAs part is also nice.
In concerns to keep in mind, some points can be elaborated.. In point no. 3 you can talk about ensuring similar returns for Indian exporters as their counterparts in the partner countries under preferential tariff systems which has been an issue in past FTAs and hence the imbalance in trade.
In point 4, you can talk about parity in services trade.
Further, you can mention need of offset clauses, contingency plans to tackle untoward situations like US removing India from GSP, sunset clauses etc
Conclusion is fine.
You can incorporate points from the article for value addition. Keep practicing. 🙂

Hello
Introduction is fine, after that the answer gets a bit imbalanced.. Concerns about FTAs are the main crux of the question which should be addressed adequately…
After intro, mention some recent examples of India’s trade negotiations. Role of FTAs can be kept short, you can use flowchart for this. Points, though are fine.
Next part is quite generic. You can go through the article tagged once for content building.
Need to ensure similar returns for Indian exporters as their counterparts in the partner countries under preferential tariff systems, presence of offset clauses, contingency plans to tackle untoward situations like US removing India from GSP, sunset clauses, bringing about parity in service trade, rules of origin etc all can be mentioned.
Conclusion is fine.
Keep practicing. 🙂
