After the announcement of Donald Trump, the US has implemented 25 percent extra tariff on India, after which India has made a dhanw plan to break this tariff. Actually, Trump’s tariff is going to affect India’s textile industry. India has prepared its plan to deal with it.
The government has planned to contact 40 countries to save the textile industry and promote clothes exports. A government official gave this information on Wednesday (August 27, 2025). The initiative includes major countries such as Britain, Japan, South Korea, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, Canada, Mexico, Russia, Belgium, Turks, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Australia.
America’s tariff will not affect
The official said, ‘India will work towards becoming a reliable, quality, durable and innovative textile products in these 40 markets. Indian Mission and Export Promotion Councils (EPCs) will play an important role in this. Although India already exports clothes to more than 220 countries, these 40 countries together import global clothes and apparel of about $ 590 billion. India’s share in this import is currently five-six percent.
The official said that this initiative of special contact with these countries in such scenario is going to be an important step towards market diversification. The additional 25 percent fee imposed on Indian products by the US has come into effect from August 27.
Expectation of adverse effects on exports of these areas
Trump’s tariff is expected to affect the export of areas such as textiles, gems and jewelery, leather, fish, chemicals and machinery. Export damage to the US alone can be $ 10.3 billion.
Mithileshwar Thakur, General Secretary of the Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC), said, ‘The 25 percent fee rate had already been accepted by the industry, but now India’s competitiveness has declined by 30-31 percent compared to countries like Bangladesh, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Cambodia and Indonesia due to additional 25 percent fee. With this, the Indian textile industry is almost out of the American market.
Demand for immediate financial relief from government
He demanded immediate financial relief from the government, so that the industry could overcome the crisis. He also said that the textile industry is now exploring the possibilities of compensation for losses through trade agreements with Britain and EFTA countries. Under the government’s scheme, EPC will identify estimation of export markets and products with high demand.
Apart from this, he said that clothing product clusters like Surat, Tirupur, Bhadohi will be linked to international occasions. Also, under the ‘Brand India’ campaign, participation in international exhibitions and business fairs will also be ensured. Free trade agreements and trade agreements can help make Indian products competitive. In such a situation, this strategic effort for India can become an opportunity to strengthen its position in the global textile export market.
