Trump Tariff: America’s 50 percent tariff imposed on India has been implemented since yesterday. Its effect can be seen on many industries of the country. One of these is India’s textile industry, for which America is the largest market for exports. In January-May 2025, US $ 4.59 billion clothing was exported from India to the US, which is 13 percent more than the previous year.

Why Indian clothes demand in America?

People in America prefer to buy India’s affordable and better quality clothes. This is the reason that India’s share in America’s Garment Import Market has increased. Now due to tariffs, these products will become expensive, which will make it less competitive in American markets than other Asian countries such as Bangladesh, Vietnam, China. In such a situation, what next?

India is eyeing these countries

If there is a problem, then it can also be solved. According to media reports, amidst the heavy tariffs imposed in the US, India is focusing on increasing its scope in 40 countries like Britain, Japan and South Korea to promote its textile exports.

Other countries include Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, Canada, Mexico, Russia, Belgium, Türkiye, United Arab Emirates and Australia. India wants to establish itself as a textile product supplier of better quality and design in these countries. Although India exports 220 countries, imports in these 40 countries can be done on a large scale.

Bad effect on the country’s textile industry

According to a business line report, talking on the US high tariff, the Apectary General Mithileshwar Thakur of the Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) said that the textile sector has been the worst affected with a US $ 10.3 billion exports.

This sector of the country had compromised with the baseline tariff of 25 percent of the US earlier, it was also ready to bear this increased expenses. But 50 percent tariffs have effectively excluded the Indian apparel industry as a difference of 30-31 % is shattered between tariffs on major competitive countries like Bangladesh, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Cambodia and Indonesia.

Now what next?

He said that the country’s textile industry hopes that there will be some immediate relief from the government to stay in the US market until favorable terms of trade through bilateral trade agreement with the US.

He further said, “This is very important because once the buyer gets a second option with a low rate, it is not easy to get back the lost land and get a share in the market.

US President Donald Trump said on Thursday (August 14, 2025) that the heavy tariff imposed on India would have impressed Russia’s President Vladimir Putin to talk to me. In a conversation with Fox News Radio, Donald Trump said that everything has its own effect. Trump claimed that the purchase of oil from Russia has stopped due to the fine imposed on India.

Donald Trump announced the first 25 percent tariff on India’s goods this month. After this, Trump also announced an additional fine of 25 percent on Indian products. After these announcements, the tariff imposed on India by America reached 50 percent. The US President cited the oil being bought by India from Russia for this tariff.

‘Russia is going to lose its biggest customer …’- Trump

US President Trump further said in the conversation that India will probably play a role in getting ready for Putin’s conversation. He said that surely when you lose your second largest customer and are going to lose your first biggest customer, then I think it may have a role.

On the question of giving economic incentive to Russia to stop the fight in Ukraine, he said that he would not want to do his move publicly. He emphasized this and said that his wish is in getting immediate peace agreement. He said that if there is any result from this meeting, then he will immediately call the President of Ukraine Volodimir Jailonsky and will call him wherever we meet.

What do Trump want to do by putting pressure on India?

India has emerged as a major partner in China’s strategic rivalry with the US in recent years. However, its big trade with the US and close relations with Russia have made India the main target of Donald Trump’s tariff. On the pretext of this, Trump is trying to pressurize India to get a peace agreement with Ukraine.

In the last few years, India has made an important place in global leadership. Whether it is European country or African, whether Muslim nation or a small island country… India’s relations have become better than all countries. Trump’s tariff bomb from India has been described as unfair, unknown and indiscriminate.

US President Donald Trump last week announced additional punitive action on imposing 25 per cent high tariffs on India and doing business with Russia, causing a stir all over the world. He also said that I do not care what India does with Russia. They can further drop their dead economy. The reaction of Canadian Business Tycoon Kirk Lubimov has come about Trump’s statement.

Testband company chairman Kirk Lubimov, while criticizing Turmp’s strategy on Twitter, wrote, ‘Trump is now taking the fastest growing economy in the world to fight with India. This is a big geopolitical mistake. Lubimov believes that the importance of India is not only economic, but also to balance China’s influence in the supply chain. He suggested Trump that he should cooperate with Canada and India instead of controlling India with nail-hills so that global resources can be balanced.

I’ve said it before, and i’ll say it again;

The biggest problem with Donald Trump’s Tariff approach is that it has zero consider to geopolitical strategy.

Trump described India as a dead economy

Trump not only described India as a dead economy, but also severely criticized India’s high tariff policies. He alleged that India imposes the world’s highest tariff on American goods. America’s trade with India is limited due to tariffs and restrictions. India’s trade with Russia weakens the US ban policy. This stance came at a time when India has become the second largest buyer of crude oil from Russia. Earlier this part was less than 1%, which has now exceeded 35%.

India’s response- we grow fast economy

The Government of India immediately responded to this statement based on diplomatic and facts. Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said in Parliament that India is now the fastest growing major economy in the world and is soon to become the third largest economy in the world. According to Goyal, India’s contribution to Global GDP is around 16%. The flexible economic policies and structural reforms of the country have made India a global growth engine.

Trump Tariff: US President Donald Trump has decided to reduce 145 percent tariff on China, showing softness on China. Now the Chinese government is also considering the removal of 125 percent tariffs on some American imports because the impact of this trade war between the two countries is deepening on some industries, spending is sitting more on them.

China can remove tariffs on these things

According to the report of Gulf News, people familiar with the case have said that China is thinking of removing tariffs on some industrial equipment and some industrial chemicals like ethane. Along with this, Chinese officials are also discussing the removal of tariffs from the planes on lease.

Like many other airlines, China also does not own all aircraft. For the use of some jet aircraft, third party companies have to pay lease payment- due to tariffs, the expenditure on them is now sitting more. Earlier, Trump had excluded electronics products from 145 percent tariffs imposed on China.

Many Chinese industries depend on American imports

Many big industries have come to a standstill due to the trade war between these two economies of the world. America imports more goods than China. Beijing is also thinking of removing tariffs from American imports, on which big industries are dependent on it. For example, China is the world’s largest plastic manufacturer, but some of its factories depend on Ethane. It is mainly imported from the US.

Similarly, many hospitals in China also depend on medical equipment made by American companies like GE Healthcare Technologies Inc. However, the Chinese Finance Ministry or Customs Department has not yet commented on questions about the removal of tariffs from US imports.

American companies also tighten the screws

The Commerce Ministry of China has also replied to the US and put 12 American institutions in its export control list. Also, 6 American companies have been included in the list of “unreliable entities”.

American stock market is also impacted

After this announcement, the US stock index futures also saw a sharp decline. This news came at a time when the Trump administration decided to impose an additional 104 percent tariff on goods imported from China yesterday. The press secretary of the White House had said that this tariff would be applicable from April 9 (Wednesday).

Will the trade war be faster now?

This fight of tariff between China and America has become even faster. The two countries are adopting a policy of “Tit-for-Tat” (eye instead of eye) on each other, increasing pressure on the global economy.

Donald Trump Tariff: Donald Trump is once again in the headlines for business policies. This time he has started dialogue with important business partners like India, Israel and Vietnam under the new tariff policy. On 2 April 2025, US President Donald Trump announced a new import duty (tariff) on India, Israel and Vietnam, which will be effective from April 9.

According to the announcement of Donald Trump, it has been announced to impose 26% on India, 46% on Vietnam and 17% on Israel. Trump argues that this policy is based on the principle of reciprocal trade, where the US should be exported equal or less.

Trump is talking to three countries including India

According to CNN report, America is holding active trade talks with representatives of India, Israel and Vietnam countries. Trump wants an agreement to be reached before the deadline so that the tariff can be postponed. According to Trump’s Truth Social Post, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam has said that if there is an agreement with America, they are ready to reduce their tariffs up to zero. It is an indication that Vietnam can adopt a flexible stance on the deal.

India’s position on tariff

This tariff is particularly challenging for India as America is the largest export market in India. 26 percent import tax can have a profound impact on Indian industries, especially in areas such as textile, IT and pharma. Talking about Israel, Israeli officials have already expressed concern that American tariffs can damage the competition capacity of Israeli companies. With this, some companies may think of starting a manufacturing unit in the US.

Trump’s ‘Deal Making’ strategy

Donald Trump has always been putting forward the image of the deal maker. Talking to reporters, he said that every country is calling us. This is our beauty, we keep ourselves on the driver’s seat. They believe that tariff is a pressure weapon, so that countries can be brought to the table of negotiation.

Tiktok example given on tariff or technology

Giving the example of Tiktok, Donald Trump said that countries like China can also be ready to compromise in exchange for tariffs. This strategy is not only limited to trade, but it is also the scope of national security and technical companies. Apart from this, Trump’s son Eric Trump posted on X (East Twitter) that the country who will first interact, he will win, he will lose in the last, the statement makes it clear that there is a clear message from the US: to compromise or face losses quickly.

China and Canada’s response

While some countries are preparing for talks, China and Canada have clearly said that they will retaliate with American tariffs. This can create an atmosphere of potential business war.
