India will remain a key market for Cadbury

Confectionery maker Cadbury, which has agreed to be acquired by US-based Kraft Foods, said on Tuesday India will remain a key market for its business.

Kraft is set to take over the British confectioner in a cash-and-stock deal worth around GBP11.9 billion.

Declining to comment on the implications of the takeover on the Indian business, a Cadbury spokesperson said India would continue to be a key market.
