Experts split on impact of new US tariffs on India's jobs, exports
The steep tariff imposed on Indian exports to the US has evoked concerns among staffing experts with some of them warning of an immediate jobs crisis while others believe India's domestic demand and trade diversification will help cushion the impact. "The recent imposition of additional US tariffs is expected to have a direct and substantial impact on India's employment landscape. This will especially impact those industries relying heavily on the US market for business continuity and growth," workforce solutions and HR services provider Genius HRTech founder, chairman and managing director R P Yadav told PTI. Sectors like textiles, auto components, agriculture, and gems and jewellery are the most vulnerable, with MSMEs bearing the brunt, said Yadav. He estimates that 2,00,000 to 3,00,000 jobs are at immediate risk, with textiles alone, which is labour-intensive, potentially losing 1,00,000 jobs, if the tariff regime continues beyond the next six months. "Similarly, in the gem and jewellery sector, including units in Surat and SEEPZ in Mumbai, thousands of jobs are at risk due to reduced demand and cost escalation in the US market," he added. However, TeamLease Services Senior Vice President Balasubramanian Anantha Narayanan does not see the possibility of job losses, saying India is largely a domestic consumption-driven economy, unlike China. "At this point in time, we aren't seeing any signs of a slowdown or loss of jobs. This also by extension means that our jobs are largely in service of domestic demand too, with the exception of some sectors like ITeS among others. Our exports to the USA are USD 87 billion, which is roughly about 2.2 per cent of our overall GDP. Largely pharma, electronics etc. won't be affected for now, which will further limit the export exposure to industries such as textiles, gems and jewellery among others," he said. Moreover, these tariffs come into effect later this month, and some negotiations are likely to happen before that, he added. "On the other side, we've also had several positives by way of the recently closed FTA with the UK and other countries. Even if these US tariffs do come about, we'll definitely figure out a way of redirecting or diversifying our trade to other markets. Therefore, at this point in time, we aren't seeing any signs of a slowdown or loss of jobs. It's an evolving situation and we'll get to know more in due course of time," he said. The slowdown in jobs growth is much more due to the overall slowdown in global demand and consumption, uncertainty around tariffs, and geopolitical conflicts in various parts of the globe, he added. Meanwhile, CIEL HR MD and CEO Aditya Mishra said the US tariff scenario is unsettling for Indian exporters, especially in sectors that are heavily dependent on the American market, such as electronics, textiles, gems and jewellery, auto components, leather, footwear, shrimp, and engineering goods. "Even industries outside the direct tariff ambit, like pharmaceuticals, are feeling the ripple effect through costlier upstream chemicals and materials," he noted. However, as negotiations are expected, this phase of uncertainty may persist through the third quarter of this financial year, said Mishra. "While widespread layoffs appear unlikely at this stage, companies are already in cost-containment mode, reducing discretionary spending, streamlining production, and freezing hiring. The immediate pressure will be on temporary and contract roles, particularly shop-floor workers, artisans, sales and logistics staff, and some mid-level managers in export-led units. This will have a cascading effect on thousands of MSMEs in the supply chain, which collectively account for a large share of employment," he added. This situation might also indirectly affect sectors like IT and GCCs, he said, adding that the IT sector is already experiencing slow spending and hiring, and this additional uncertainty could delay its recovery further. "GCCs (global capability centres) are likely to take a cautious approach to hiring and investments until there is greater clarity on trade negotiations and market stability. If the tariff situation persists, India's market share in the US could shrink, leading to longer-term repercussions for exporters and the industries that depend on them," he added.

Experts have mixed opinions about impact of US tariffs on job market
Synopsis US tariffs on Indian exports spark job concerns. Experts warn of potential job losses in textiles, gems, and other sectors. Some believe India's domestic demand and trade diversification will cushion the blow. Negotiations are expected, and India may redirect trade. Uncertainty may persist, leading to cost containment and hiring freezes. IT and GCC sectors might also face indirect effects.

Want to study in Germany? Cost of living, scholarships available for Indian students
– Ian McRae For international students planning to study in Germany, understanding the cost of living is just as crucial as selecting the right university or programme. Having a clear idea of your monthly expenses, like rent, groceries, transportation, and your phone bill, not only helps you manage your budget but also gives you peace of mind so you can focus on your studies. While Germany is known for its world-class education and low or even no tuition fees, the cost of living can vary significantly depending on the city you choose and your lifestyle. On average, international students should budget around €1,120 per month to cover essential living expenses. This includes rent and utilities, groceries, public transportation, health insurance, phone and internet, as well as study materials and other miscellaneous costs. Housing is often the biggest monthly expense. Students living in on-campus residences or halls can expect to pay between €250 to €500 per month, while those in shared flats off-campus typically pay €300 to €600, depending on the city and neighbourhood. For students opting for a private one-bedroom apartment, rent can range from €700 to €1,200 monthly. Transportation is relatively affordable, with public transit passes costing between €30 and €58 per month. Groceries and food usually add up to €150 to €250, especially if students shop at discount supermarkets or cook at home. Health insurance is mandatory and ranges between €140 to €150 per month, depending on the type of coverage. Other common monthly costs include around €25 for a mobile phone plan, €150 for utilities (if shared between two people), €32 for internet, and approximately €75 for study materials and miscellaneous needs. Although tuition may not be a major financial burden, these living costs can quickly accumulate. It's also important to remember that cities like Munich and Frankfurt tend to have a much higher cost of living compared to smaller or mid-sized cities such as Leipzig or Dresden. Careful budgeting and smart planning can go a long way in helping international students enjoy their academic journey in Germany without financial stress. Several scholarships available in 2025 can significantly reduce or even cover living costs for Indian students: – DAAD Scholarships: Fully funded for Master's and PhD students, offering around €934/month for Master's and €1,300/month for PhDs, covering tuition, travel, insurance, and accommodation. – Heinrich Böll Foundation: Grants between €850–€1,200/month, including health insurance and travel allowances. – Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS): Supports Master's and PhD students with stipends of about €934–€1,200/month, plus health and family benefits. – Friedrich Ebert Foundation: Offers up to €1,350/month, including living and health costs. – Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung: Provides around €1,350/month, with additional research or travel support. – Deutschlandstipendium: A merit-based scholarship offering €300/month for high-achieving students. Additionally, Bayer Foundation, Heidelberg University, RWTH Aachen, TUM, Hamburg University, and others offer university-based scholarships and fellowships ranging from €300/month up to €10,000/year, especially in STEM and research fields Where and how you live will have a major impact on your budget. Students typically choose one of the following housing options: – Student Residences (Wohnheim): €250–€400/month Managed by the Studentenwerk, these are often the most affordable and conveniently located. – Shared Flats (Wohngemeinschaft or WG): €300–€600/month A popular choice, WG living allows you to share costs and space with other students. – Private Rentals: €925–€1,300/month Renting a one-bedroom flat in major cities is the most expensive option. – Transportation: Affordable and Accessible Many universities offer a semester ticket, a public transit pass included in your tuition or student fees that allows for unlimited local travel. If your school doesn't include this, or you want to explore beyond your city, the Deutschland-Ticket offers nationwide local train and public transport access for a monthly fee. Some institutions even offer this ticket at a discounted student rate. All international students must have valid health insurance in Germany. The type depends on your age and program: – Public Health Insurance: €140–€150/month Available for students under 30 enrolled in degree programs. – Private Health Insurance: Varies Required for students over 30 or those in non-degree programs like language courses. Some students may also need travel insurance, which can often be bundled with their visa application for free. Students typically spend €150 to €250 per month on groceries. Discount supermarkets like Aldi, Lidl, Netto, and Penny offer quality food at lower prices. On-campus dining is budget-friendly too. Meals at Mensa (university cafeterias) usually cost between €2.50 and €5. However, keep in mind that some Mensas only operate during breakfast and lunch hours. To apply for a German student visa, most non-EU international students must show proof of funds. This is done through a Sperrkonto (blocked account): Required Deposit: €11,904 (as of 2025) – Monthly Disbursement: €992 This ensures students have enough money to support themselves and serves as a financial safety net during their studies. – Smart Budgeting Tips To make the most of your budget while studying in Germany, it's important to adopt a few smart financial habits. Sharing your living space, such as renting a room in a shared flat or student residence can significantly reduce your monthly rent. Cooking meals at home instead of dining out frequently not only saves money but also allows you to eat healthier. Take advantage of student discounts wherever possible, whether it's for public transportation, groceries, or entertainment. Keeping track of your expenses through budgeting apps or simple spreadsheets can help you stay on top of your spending and avoid surprises. And if your visa conditions allow, working part-time is a great way to supplement your income and cover some of your day-to-day costs. Together, these small adjustments can make a big difference in managing your living expenses effectively. By planning ahead and budgeting wisely, you'll not only meet visa requirements but also enjoy a more balanced and enriching study abroad experience.
