India, US to Hold Trade Talks Amid Tariff Storm
Trade talks aim to resolve issues from US tariffs impacting two-thirds of Indian exports; government proposes Rs 25,000 crore support for exporters under Export Promotion Mission.
- On September 16, 2025, trade representatives from both countries will meet in New Delhi for a one-day session aimed at resolving tariff disagreements.
- The talks follow the imposition of punitive 50% US tariffs on most Indian goods imports effective August 27, triggered by India's purchase of Russian oil.
- Negotiations have stalled since August's latest round was postponed due to tariff disagreements, but officials express optimism about resolving issues soon.
- Trade data indicate that India’s shipments to the US declined from $8.01 billion in July to $6.86 billion in August, with nearly two-thirds of these exports now subjected to tariffs of 50% or more.
- The tariffs will cause short-term economic pain in India, risk undermining US strategic interests, and complicate supply chains, though both sides remain committed to ongoing dialogue.
