I estimate that the tariff imposed by the US on Indian goods will come out in the next eight to ten weeks. He further said-‘I believe that punitive fees will not be applicable after November 30’. However, he warned that the export of Indian things to America may decline in the event of tariff continuing.

The relationship between the two countries due to tariff

He said, “Though the rupee is weakening against the dollar, but given the strength of the economy, I am sure that the rupee will maintain its value in the long run and it will also strengthen it.”

Nagswaran said that the priorities of the government include capital expenditure, encouragement of private investment and improvement in regulatory structure. He called upon the private sector to spend more on innovation and research. On the impact of AI on the Arthi system, he said that its impact is limited at present but there will be pressure on coding jobs.

Democrats of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee have criticized President Donald Trump and his administration. He says that only India is being targeted to buy oil from Russia, while big buyers like China are exempted.

Tariff damage to America and relations
Democrats say that 50% of tariffs on Trump’s Indian imports have damaged Americans and are damaging Indo-US relations made up of the last two decades of bipartite attempts. He said that “instead of banning China or other countries, only targeting India is weakening the US-India relations. It is almost as the case is not related to Ukraine.”

NYT report cited
The panel, citing the report of the New York Times, said that if the Trump administration had imposed a secondary ban on every country buying oil from Russia, the matter was different. But by focusing only on India, this has become the most confused policy result, because China is still buying Russian oil at a discount after getting discounts.

New tariffs and effects
The attack of Democrats came when the additional 25% tariffs (above 25% applied) applied by Trump became effective. In this way the tariff rate has doubled. Trump has linked it to India’s Russian oil trade.

According to the Government of India, these tariffs will have an impact on export of $ 48.2 billion. Officials have warned that new duties can make the US a commercially non-practical, which can reduce employment and slow the economic growth.

Modi government’s attitude
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has clarified that India will not bow under pressure. However, the US has exempted some sectors such as pharmaceuticals and electronic goods, which has given partial relief to India.

Status of trade relations
Indo-US trade relations have been strengthened in recent years, but they are still affected by controversies on market access and domestic political pressures. India was in early countries that started trade talks with the Trump administration, but so far no agreement has been reached as America has been demanding more reach in India’s agriculture and dairy sector.

To buy crude oil from Russia, India has to bear the burden of heavy tariffs, which the US has imposed as a penalty. Meanwhile, a report claimed that India is getting an annual benefit of only two and a half billion dollars by purchasing crude oil from Russia at a cheaper price. It was also claimed in the report that the matter of big profits in the media is not, but things are being exaggerated in the media.

The brokerage company CLSA released a report on Thursday (August 28, 2025) saying that it was estimated earlier that India would have an annual profit of $ 10 to 25 billion on buying oil from Russia, reality is very different from it, only two and a half billion dollars will be profitable. According to the report, ‘India has been exaggerated in the media. According to our estimate, this benefit is only 0.06 percent of India’s GDP (GDP) $ 2.5 billion.

The CLSA said that there is a huge concession in showing a price limit of $ 60 per barrel on Russian oil, but in fact, due to many restrictions like insurance, shipping and rebel, India is very low.

The report states that the average discount on Russian oil in FY 2023-24 was $ 8.5 per barrel which has come down to three-five dollars in 2024-25 and $ 1.5 per barrel in recent months. The CLSA has warned that if India stops importing Russian oil, it will disrupt the global supply and the price of crude oil can reach $ 90 to $ 100 per barrel, which is expected to increase global inflation.

The report also said that Indian oil companies also have to mix better quality and expensive crude oil due to high imports of dandruff. Due to this, there is no clear benefit in the average import price. The report says that Russian oil imports are not only necessary for India from a strategic point of view, but it is also helpful in maintaining control of crude oil prices in the global market.

After the commencement of Russia-Ukraine War in February 2022, there has been a boom in the matter of oil imports from Russia to India. In FY 2024-25, India imported 36 percent of the total 54 lakh barrels of oil imports i.e. 18 lakh barrels per day from Russia. This figure was less than one percent before the Ukraine War.

Russia started giving huge discounts on oil after a ban on oil sale from Western countries, which ensured energy supply to India at a cheap rate. However, some countries including the US criticized India and described it as profiteering. The US government has increased the duty on import of Indian products from August 27 to 50 percent to continue the purchase of cheap oil from Russia.

Former US Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley has given a clear warning that the US-India relations are on the verge of breaking up. He said that if America wants to rein in China’s growing ambitions, then it will have to give priority to relations with India.

In an article published in Newsweek on Wednesday (20 August 2025), Haley wrote that America should not ignore the most important thing that our target is China. America must have a friend as India to face him.

Controversy over tariffs and dandruff
Haley’s statement comes at a time when there has been an increased tension between America and India over trade disputes and Russian oil imports. President Donald Trump has imposed 25% mutual fee and 25% additional tariffs on India, which will be applicable from August 27. Haley admitted that Russia is getting financial help for Ukraine War due to India buying oil, but at the same time he warned that it would be a strategic mistake to treat India like an enemy.

India’s important role in stopping China
Haley said that India is the only country to combat China’s dominance in Asia. India has the ability to manufacture on a scale like China, which can help America to meet the demand for its supply chain through India instead of China. India’s strong defense relations with countries like America and Israel make it important for the safety of the world. Haley believes that India will weaken China’s ambitions in the coming time.

Trump-Modi conversation appeal
Haley suggested that President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi should talk directly to remove misunderstandings between the two countries. He said that if this does not happen, China will take advantage of this rift. Haley referred to her article in 1982 from Indira Gandhi’s words of US President Ronald Reagan. He wrote that America and India can sometimes adopt different routes, but their destination should remain the same. Haley reiterated that America needs to keep friendship with India to face China’s challenge.
