US President Donald Trump's announcement of an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods has ignited concerns across industries, with criticism directed at his approach. Industry experts argue it's an attempt to isolate India in the global market.
Mohit Singla of the Trade Promotion Council of India labeled the tariff as 'unjustified,' suggesting legal and strategic countermeasures. Despite the challenges, he remains hopeful about negotiating a mutual resolution with the US.
Business leaders, including JCB India's Deepak Shetty, are monitoring the situation closely but retain optimism due to positive responses to Indian exports. The Indian government is praised for a calm, step-by-step approach, expecting a sensible outcome from future US-India talks.
