After America, Mexico has decided to impose 50 percent tariff on some selected goods imported from India. Now India has reacted to this step of Mexico. An official said on Saturday (December 13, 2025) that after this decision of Mexico, New Delhi has warned to take appropriate steps to protect its interests. He said, ‘India reserves the right to take appropriate steps to protect the interests of the country’s exporters while seeking a solution through dialogue.’
According to a PTI report, the official said that India was in touch with Mexico on this matter since the initial phase of the introduction of the bill. He said, ‘India’s Commerce Department is in talks with the Finance Ministry of Mexico to find a mutually beneficial solution in line with global trade rules.’
High level talks between India and Mexico
A high-level meeting has already taken place between India’s Commerce Secretary Rajesh Aggarwal and Mexico’s Deputy Finance Minister Luis Rosendo regarding this matter and follow-up meetings are also expected after this. The Government has said that a unilateral increase in MFN tariffs without any prior negotiation is neither consistent with the spirit of our cooperative economic relations nor with the principles of predictability and transparency of the multilateral trading system.
These tariffs, which are being imposed by Mexico to protect the national industry and producers, will come into effect from the beginning of next year i.e. January 1, 2026. The official said, ‘India attaches great importance to its partnership with Mexico and is ready to work collaboratively for a stable and balanced trade environment in the interest of businesses and consumers of both countries.’
Mexico imposed tariff on which Indian goods?
According to Mexico’s daily newspaper El Universal, Mexico has imposed tariffs on products like auto parts, light cars, clothing, plastics, steel, home appliances, toys, furniture, shoes, leather goods, paper, cardboard, motorcycles, aluminum, trailers, glass, soap, perfumes and cosmetics imported from India.
