This week, Trump also ordered new 50-percent tariffs on many Canadian products.
U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer announced the new tariffs on 60 countries under Section 301 of the Trade Act on July 24, a day before the expiration of 10% additional levies on all countries
India has been placed in the lower 10 per cent tariff category.
The 10% tariff places India on par with Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, along with several Latin American and Asian economies.
After the latest measure, the total tariff imposed on India will remain at 10 per cent.
While India managed to secure a lower tariff than originally proposed 12.5%, the move adds another layer of uncertainty to ongoing India-US trade negotiations.
The new tariffs will come into effect as U.S. President Donald Trump’s temporary worldwide tariff of 10% expires
India avoids a steeper US tariff, with exports facing a 10% Section 301 duty from Friday after New Delhi tightened rules against forced-labour imports.
