Trumpโ€™s 26% tariff on Indian imports โ€“ A quick breakdown: Trumpโ€™s 26% tariff on Indian imports is higher than what the EU (20%), Japan (24%), and South Korea (25%) are facingโ€”putting India in a tight spot. Key sectors like auto (3% of exports), IT (Nifty IT already down 3%), gems, steel, and electronics are under pressure. The estimated GDP impact? Around $31Bโ€”about 0.72% of Indiaโ€™s projected 2025 GDP. This move adds heat to ongoing US-India trade talks, making a bilateral deal trickier. But not allโ€™s bleak. India could gain ground in textiles and apparel, especially since Vietnam and Bangladesh face even steeper tariffs. Nowโ€™s the time for Indian exporters to diversify markets and double down on domestic capacity. A Free Trade Agreement could still flip the scriptโ€”but until then, resilience and strategy are the name of the game. How do you think Indian businesses should adapt? Drop in comments ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

Many people are happy about the reduction in the trade deficit, but the reality is that the reason behind India's trade deficit decreasing is that India has slightly reduced its imports of gold, silver, and crude this time.
