He said the talks, which have been going on for five rounds, needed to be completed before the official visit of Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Malaysia in November.
"I want to propose a more pragmatic approach in discussions. We need to focus on what is doable and what can be achievable.
"The negotiations should not be a zero sum game but rather it should lead to a win-win situation for both sides," he said in a speech at the Malaysia-India Seminar here Thursday.
Besides CECA, both governments were also working on a Framework for Strategic Partnership to boost bilateral relations to a higher level, said the Malaysian prime minister.
"This is an overarching agreement to oversee bilateral relations on various fronts, including economic, security and people-to-people engagements," he added.
