Trump Tariff: US President Donald Trump has announced 25 percent tariff on goods coming from India to America on Wednesday. Together, he has said to put penalty on India for the purchase of crude oil and weapons from Russia. At first glance, even though we may not find this step of Trump less than a shock, it is also an opportunity to convert disaster into opportunity. Let’s know how?
Export will increase the scope
India will now have to increase the scope of its export market by applying the tariff of Trump. Countries like European Union, Britain and Middle East will have to increase their reach as much as possible. Recently, due to the free trade agreement (FTA) between Britain and India, the reach of Indian businessmen will increase in the markets there. Industrialist Harsh Goenka also says that this decision of Trump can open new avenues of possibilities for India. He told that India now needs to carry forward its business with Europe and Asean.

‘Make in India’ will get boost
Another advantage of the tariff will be that this will further strengthen the ‘Make in India’ initiative of the government. India is currently in a better position about tariffs than many other Asian countries. The US has imposed a 35 percent tariff on Bangladesh, 20 percent tariff on Vietnam and 40 percent tariff on the transpiration of goods from Vietnam.
Currently 55 percent tariff is applicable on China. In such a situation, many more companies including America will be encouraged to produce in India itself. In addition, this will reduce dependence on imports. Especially, the production of electronics, semiconductor and car will be promoted. India will emerge as a self -sufficient economy.
Business will increase in India
Due to the ongoing tension over the trade deal between the US and China, many companies are looking to shift their manufacturing from China elsewhere. In such a situation, what can be a good option than India. Manufacturing cost in India is relatively low, costs are low on labor, many concessions are being given like the government, so many companies are focusing on shifting their manufacturing base from China to India. Earlier, companies like Apple, XIOMI, Samsung, Vivo, Oppo and Asus have increased business in India.
New technology will be adopted
Due to tariff, Indian products will become expensive in America. In such a situation, products to be exported from other countries will have to keep the price of their goods low in American markets. Many Indian companies will also work on new methods to reduce the price of their goods. This is likely to adopt new methods of production and new techniques.
