US Imposes 50% Tariffs on Indian Goods Amid Diplomatic Tensions Over Russian Oil Purchases

Big news this week: the United States has imposed an additional 25% tariff on imports from India, specifically in response to India’s continued purchases of Russian oil. This brings the **total US tariff on many Indian goods to a staggering 50%**, taking effect for goods entering the US from August 27th. However, there’s a limited exemption for shipments already in transit before that deadline and declared with special customs codes. This move by the Trump administration is being framed as a reciprocal trade action, and it’s generating significant diplomatic pushback and concern about major disruptions to bilateral trade and global supply chains. Industry leaders and Indian officials warn of negative consequences for both economies, especially as these tariffs land during a period of uncertainty in broader US-India relations, according to taxtmi.com and The Hindustan Times.
Listeners should note that President Trump, after initially ramping up the rhetoric, has recently softened his tone in public about India. Despite earlier calling the relationship “one-sided” and expressing disappointment over India’s Russian energy dealings, Trump this week described US-India ties as “special” and praised Prime Minister Modi as a “great Prime Minister.” According to the Hindustan Times, in a direct response, Modi signaled openness to reset the dialogue. But behind diplomatic statements, the latest tariffs have put bilateral negotiations on ice, with Indian sources telling Indian Express that both countries are wary of escalating into a full-blown trade showdown that could threaten decades of strategic partnership.
While the 50% tariff is biting for Indian exporters, there are some new exemptions. Effective September 8, President Trump has signed an order granting tariff relief on more than 45 categories of Indian goods—mainly specialized pharmaceutical compounds, nickel waste, lidocaine, gold, and certain electronics materials. According to The Economic Times, this raises the value of India’s tariff-exempt exports to the US to approximately 28.4 billion dollars, or about 31% of last year’s total Indian exports to the US.
On the political front, opposition voices in India are demanding a tougher response, with Arvind Kejriwal urging Prime Minister Modi to slap a 75% tariff on all US imports as retaliation, while also criticizing exemptions on US cotton as harmful to Indian farmers, reports India Today.
Economists, like Neelkanth Mishra of Axis Bank, caution that the 50% tariff isn’t likely to last long. He predicts the burden will fall harder on small US businesses and that the overall economic impact on India will be buffered by currency fluctuations and India’s diversified global trade.
To sum up for our listeners: US tariffs on Indian goods currently stand at 50% for many categories due to diplomatic tensions over Russian oil purchases. Select goods are now exempted under new orders, but the situation remains highly fluid. Both governments appear to be posturing publicly while trying to keep the door open for negotiations, as industry and political leaders push for solutions that avoid deeper economic damage.
