India Defers Retaliatory Tariffs On US Imports To Nov 2

As per the finance ministry notification, the plan has been deferred until November 2. Earlier the centre planned to impose higher tariffs beginning August 4 but this was delayed to September 18 as both the countries convened meetings for avoiding trade war situation.

 

This step by the Indian government shows the country's inclination to find a solution and avert a full-blown trade war with the US.

In accordance with the local media reports, the US with some pre-specified conditions is willing to withdraw trade tariffs on Indian aluminum and steel. This marks a stark difference in the US President's dealings with India.

The original retaliatory tariff plan of India, against the US levy of 25% and 10% on Indian steel and aluminum, respectively, would include items imported from the US such as some hot-rolled coil products, walnuts, almonds, boric acid, apples and diagnostic reagents.
