US Imposes Tariffs on Indian Goods Over Trade Disputes

Published on 7.31.25

  The US has imposed a proposed 25% tariff on $7 billion worth of Indian goods, including pharmaceuticals, auto parts, and electronics, amid ongoing trade deal negotiations between the two countries. The move is seen as a pressure tactic to get India to agree to US demands, following favourable trade deals with Japan, the UK, and the European Union. Indian External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar has defended India's position, saying it seeks to get the best deal for its citizens, while Congress leader Ramesh criticized President Trump's approach, suggesting Prime Minister Modi should stand up to the US president.
