Why US singled out India over Russia trade? Trump's 8-hour dodge fuels suspense
In a dramatic escalation of trade tensions, US President Donald Trump imposed steep tariffs on Indian imports, taking aim at a "good friend" for continuing oil purchases from Russia. While New Delhi pushed back, pointing out that several other countries are also trading with Moscow, Trump appeared to single out India. When questioned about the apparent double standard, he dodged with a vague '8-hour' response, leaving more questions than who initially announced a 25% tariff plus penalties, doubled down on Wednesday by signing an executive order imposing an additional 25% tariff, bringing the total to 50% on certain Indian goods. The move, he claimed, was a response to India's 'big purchases of Russian oil.''India has not been a good trading partner,' Trump declared, accusing New Delhi of ignoring US concerns and pursuing energy deals with Moscow in defiance of Western pressure. India, meanwhile, has remained unfazed, maintaining that its actions are in line with its national interest. India pointed out that the US itself buys from a journalist asked, 'Indian officials have said that there are other countries that are buying Russian oil, like China, for instance. Why are you singling India out for these additional sanctions?', Trump deflected with a warning."It's only been 8 hours. So let's see what happens. You're going to see a lot more... You're going to see so many secondary sanctions," he said, hinting at a wider crackdown on countries engaging in trade with Russia.#WATCH | On being asked, 'Indian officials have said that there are other countries that are buying Russian oil, like China, for instance.

India risks 1% GDP hit as Trump slaps 50% tariffs over Russian oil
Synopsis Trump 50% tariffs on India: Analysts predict India's GDP growth could decline by up to 1% due to the US doubling tariffs on Indian goods in response to continued Russian oil purchases. This move threatens to reduce Indian exports to the US significantly, impacting labor-intensive sectors and potentially forcing India to seek alternative markets. Agencies India could lose as much as a full percentage point of GDP growth following US President Donald Trump's latest move to double tariffs on Indian goods to 50%, analysts said. The new levies, imposed as punishment for India's continued purchase of Russian oil, could severely dent exports and unsettle an already slowing tariffs announced on Thursday will take effect in 21 days. Analysts say the move could push Indian goods out of competition in the US market, which is India's largest export destination. Bloomberg Economics estimates the hike could reduce India's outbound shipments to the US by up to 60%, potentially shaving off about 1% from GDP. The Reserve Bank of India has forecast the economy to grow at 6.5% in fiscal 2026 — the same pace as last year, but well below the 8% average growth India saw in previous years.'The overall hit to GDP could be even higher at 1.1% over the medium term' once tariffs on sectors such as pharmaceuticals and electronics are announced, wrote Chetna Kumar and Adam Farrar of Bloomberg hardest hit are expected to be labour-intensive sectors such as textiles, footwear, gems and jewellery. Analysts warn that many businesses in these industries could see exports to the US come to a halt, forcing India to urgently seek alternative markets. New Delhi has reacted strongly to the announcement. Calling the US move 'unfair, unjustified,' the Indian government criticised Trump for targeting India while other nations also continue buying oil from Russia. Sonal Badhan, an Economics Specialist at Bank of Baroda, told ANI, 'We had initially priced in approx. 0.2 per cent impact (on GDP growth) of 25-26 per cent tariffs imposed by the US on imports from India. The additional 25 per cent hike will come into effect after 21 days. During this time or in the coming months, there is a likelihood that lower rates may be negotiated.'Also Read: Trump's additional 25% tariffs may dent India's FY26 growth by 0.4% She added that the final impact on GDP growth would depend on the trade agreement that emerges. 'The total impact of these tariffs on GDP growth may range between 0.2-0.4 per cent,' she said, adding that the garments, precious stones, electronics, pharma, auto parts, and MSME sectors are likely to be hit. 'There appears to be downside risk to our growth forecast of 6.4-6.6 per cent if lower rates are not negotiated,' she and trade experts are also alarmed. Ajay Srivastava, founder of the Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI), said the high tariffs could make Indian goods significantly costlier and reduce exports to the US by as much as 40–50%.A report by Morgan Stanley warned that unless offset by decisive government policies and reforms, the move could shave off as much as 80 basis points from India's GDP growth over the next 12 months. According to the report, a full-scale tariff of 50% on all Indian exports would have a direct impact of 60 basis points on growth, while indirect effects could push the total loss to 1.2 percentage points. If only 67% of goods are subject to the full tariff, the combined direct and indirect impact would still be around 80 basis points. Also Read: India braces for a growth hit with US tariffs going up to 50% The foreign bank expects Indian policymakers to respond if tariffs stay high for a year. The Reserve Bank of India could cut interest rates by up to 75 basis points — including 50 bps more than currently planned — to support domestic demand. RBI had left rates unchanged on August 6. The government might also ease up on fiscal consolidation and raise public investment to offset export losses, Morgan Stanley Sonal Varma and Aurodeep Nandi at Nomura Holdings described the 50% tariff as similar to 'a trade embargo,' warning that it would cause 'a sudden stop in affected export products.' They said that many small and medium enterprises may struggle to survive, given their low margins and limited value US currently accounts for nearly 20% of India's total exports. Citigroup's Samiran Chakraborty warned that with the tariffs, exports could become 'economically unviable' and said that using a simple estimate might understate the actual damage. Chakraborty also said the move could hit both current and capital account flows. With the rupee already near its record low, the RBI may have to step in to prevent a sharp fall, he said. Citigroup expects a 0.6-0.8 percentage point downside risk to GDP growth from the tariff officials, however, appear less worried. Dammu Ravi, Secretary for Economic Relations at the Ministry of External Affairs, said India will explore new export markets if the US becomes 'difficult to export.' He mentioned South Asia, Africa and Latin America as potential destinations. 'It's very natural for countries to look for alternatives when you are affected by a wall of tariffs in any part of the world,' he analysts say that if the high tariffs continue, policy support will be necessary from both the government and the Reserve Bank of India to keep growth on track.

India will never compromise on farmers' interest, ready to pay heavy price: PM
New Delhi: In a subtle message directed at US President Donald Trump, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday that India will never compromise on the interests of its farmers, fishermen and dairy sector, and declared he was prepared to bear a significant personal cost if necessary. The statement came a day after Trump ratcheted up tariffs on Indian goods to 50 per cent, even as the two nations discuss a bilateral trade deal. The trade deal has been stuck over the US demand for greater access to India's agricultural and dairy market. The US wants reduced tariffs on products like corn, soybeans, apples, almonds and ethanol, as well as increased access for US dairy products. New Delhi is, however, resisting these demands as these will have a direct bearing on farmers. "Hamare liye apne kisaanon ka hit sarvoch prathamikta hai. Bharat apne kisaanon, pashu-paalakon aur macchuaare bhai-bahanon ke hiton ke saath kabhi bhi samjhuata nahin karega. (For us, the interests of farmers are our top priority. India will never compromise on the interests of its farmers, dairy farmers and fishermen)," Modi said. He was addressing a global conference to mark the birth centenary of late agri-scientist M S Swaminathan, the architect of India's Green Revolution. To protect farmers' interests, the prime minister said he was ready to personally pay a huge price. "Main jaanta hoon ki vyaktigat roop se mujhe bahut badi keemat chukaanee padegi. Lekin main iske liye taiyaar hoon. (I know that I will personally have to pay a heavy price. But I am ready for it)," Modi said. India today is ready (to pay the price) for the fishermen and dairy farmers, he stressed. The US has further hiked the trade tariffs on Indian goods to put pressure on India to reduce its dependency on Russia for crude oil. On the occasion, Modi also released a commemorative coin and stamp in honour of the legendary scientist. Outlining his vision for Indian agriculture, the Prime Minister emphasised the need to ensure nutritional security, crop diversification and development of climate-resilient crop varieties and technology integration. He called for developing drought-tolerant, heat-resistant, and flood-adaptive crops while pushing for AI and machine learning integration in agricultural systems. The Prime Minister suggested that real-time decision support systems could be made accessible in every district to forecast crop yields, monitor pests, and guide farming practices. Modi called for increased research on crop rotation and soil-specific suitability and further stressed the need to develop affordable soil testing tools and effective nutrient management techniques. He also talked about the need to intensify efforts towards solar-powered micro-irrigation and stated that drip systems and precision irrigation must be made more widespread and effective. Stating that the government has always considered the strength of farmers as the foundation of national progress, Modi highlighted that several schemes like PM-KISAN, PM Fasal Bima Yojana, PM Krishi Sinchai Yojana, PM Kisan Sampada Yojana, creation of 10,000 Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs) and recent PM Dhan Dhanya Yojana for the all-around development of the farm and allied sector. "The policies formulated in recent years were not merely about assistance, but about instilling confidence among farmers," he said, reiterating the government's continuous efforts to increase farmers' income, reduce production cost, and create new sources of revenue. Modi said financial support to cooperatives and self-help groups has given fresh momentum to the rural economy. The e-NAM platform has made it easier for farmers to sell their produce. The event honoured Swaminathan, whom Modi described as a visionary whose contributions transcended any single era. The prime minister recalled Swaminathan's prescient focus on forgotten crops like millets and his early warnings about chemical overuse in farming. "Dr Swaminathan believed the solutions to climate change and nutritional challenges lie in the very crops that have been forgotten," Modi said, underlining how the scientist's work anticipated today's climate adaptation priorities. Modi also recalled that years ago, Swaminathan had suggested transferring the genetic qualities of mangroves into rice, which would help make crops more climate-resilient. He emphasised that "today, as climate adaptation becomes a global priority, it is evident how far-sighted Swaminathan's thinking truly was." While Swaminathan worked to boost grain production, Modi said he was equally concerned about the environment and soil health. He introduced the concept of the Evergreen Revolution to balance both objectives and address emerging challenges. Swaminathan proposed the idea of Bio-Villages to empower rural communities and farmers, besides promoting innovative ideas such as 'Community Seed Banks and Opportunity Crops.' Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Niti Aayog member Ramesh Chand; MS Swaminathan Research Foundation Chairperson Soumya Swaminathan were among others present at the event.
