The agreements were signed after Modi held wide-ranging talks with Rajoy at the Moncloa Palace in the Spanish capital.
The two sides agreements on transfer of sentenced persons and visa waiver for holders of diplomatic passports.
Modi is the first Indian prime minister to visit Spain since Narashima Rao's trip to the country in 1992.
In the Russian city of St Petersburg, Modi will hold the 18th India-Russia annual Summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin tomorrow and attend the St Petersburg International Economic Forum the next day.
The prime minister will be in Paris on June 2 and 3 where he will hold official talks with newly elected French President Emmanuel Macron with a view to further strengthening India-France strategic ties.
