From 27 Aug 2025, the US doubled tariffs on Indian goods to 50%. This move affects many Indian exporters and workers. The tariffs target products imported into the US after this date. Indian companies face challenges as costs rise and demand may fall. This could reduce job opportunities for Indian workers in export industries. The tariffs were increased because India buys Russian crude oil, which the US opposes. Goods already shipped before 27 Aug are exempt if cleared by 17 Sep. India and the US have started talks to resolve this trade issue. The tariffs may impact Indian workers who depend on exports to the US market. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 03:46 IST; source: link)
