Malcolm Turnbull's first state visit to India is aimed at strengthening ties between Australia and the sub-continental giant.
He's using a meeting with his Indian counterpart, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to continue the push for a free trade deal.
"As we take the Australia-India relationship to new and higher levels, it's growing all the time, strengthening all the time, cooperation across so many fields."
India is a rapidly growing country, home to 1.3 billion people - a figure which is expected to keep rising.
Its population is also a young one, Mr Turnbull noting that there are now more 10 year-olds in India than there are Australians.
India's also expected to surpass China as the world's most populous nation by the year 2030, and its economy continues to grow.
