Odias in US express concern over 25% tariffs on India

Bhubaneswar: The US's sweeping 25% tariffs on Indian exports have sparked concern among the Odia diaspora in North America, with professionals and entrepreneurs warning of far-reaching economic fallout. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Calling the move short-sighted, they fear it could fuel inflation in the US, hurt bilateral trade, and strain ties between the two nations at a time when global cooperation is critical. "The tariffs remind me of Kalidasa's branch-cutting metaphor. Experts feel it will harm the US more than India," said Debashis Sahoo, associate professor of computer science, engineering and paediatrics at the University of California, San Diego. Tariffs can lead to inflation by increasing the cost of imported goods and raw materials. When businesses face higher input costs due to tariffs, they often pass these on to consumers in the form of higher prices. "The prices of clothes, diamonds, and pharmaceuticals imported from India will increase, and consumers will end up paying more. However, the final effect still needs to be studied," said Akshaya Mohanty, a businessman from Rhode Island. Sanjay Dalai, an IT professional, said, "The tariffs will hurt US companies sourcing intermediate goods from India, such as automobile parts and IT hardware. Indian exporters will also suffer, particularly in sectors like steel, aluminium, engineering goods, textiles, and automobile parts." Dalai said that the move could adversely affect US-India relations, especially at a time when cooperation is crucial in technology, defence and critical minerals. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Sahoo said that if India imposes retaliatory tariffs, it could further harm US exporters by restricting access to key markets. "Together, these effects could weaken America's economic competitiveness and slow down growth," said Sahoo. He added that the resulting price hike is likely to fuel inflation and reduce consumer spending.

Andhra Pradesh CM Naidu turns heat on defaulters in green energy space

Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads New Delhi: Chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu-led Andhra Pradesh government has launched a crackdown on renewable energy developers sitting on land parcels without initiating work and has ordered scrutiny of projects worth ₹4 lakh the first action, the government has cancelled a 328 MW wind power project allocated to Sreeja Infrastructure, a subsidiary of the Italian renewable energy major Enel Green, which was recently acquired by Gujarat-based Waaree Energies . The project was sanctioned in 2018 when Naidu was in power. However, the Capacity Sanction Agreement, required for formal commencement of work, was signed in 2022 under the previous Jagan Mohan Reddy-led YSRCP company had to complete the project in 24 months by December 2024. The government has now cancelled the project and ordered forfeiture of performance bank guarantee worth ₹6.5 crore. Over the last two weeks, two hydro projects have also been cancelled for delayed Naidu-led administration has now sought updated implementation status and timelines from all renewable projects allotted in the state, covering over 60 GW of capacity. This forms part of a broader audit aimed at unlocking stalled green energy potential in Andhra Pradesh. Sources said projects with an investment worth ₹4 lakh crore are under scrutiny. These include big players like Axis Energy, Suzlon Energy , Indosol and Ecoren. According to sources, close to 36 project sites have been allotted to three investors with no progress on ground. Indosol has been allotted 1.52 lakh acres of land to develop 3000 MW project, Ecoren has been allotted 4.35 lakh acres to develop 3500 MW capacity at six locations and Axis has 15.13 lakh acres of land to develop 12,000 MW capacity at different locations. Sources indicated that the government is serious about taking action against those sitting on solar and wind resources and action against Sreeja Infrastructure is to signal that failure to commence work immediately would result in cancellation and penalties. "This is not just about enforcing deadlines. This is about reclaiming credibility, land, and clean energy targets," said an official adding, "Valuable wind zones are being locked up by companies that are not acting. In a resource-constrained geography like ours, we can't afford such strategic delays."Unlike government land leases, Sreeja's project is slated to be built on private land, but the government had already earmarked exclusive wind coordinates for the project, effectively blocking any other renewable developer from using the site. With limited high-velocity wind zones in Andhra Pradesh, these land-coordinate allocations are prized Naidu, who returned to power with a strong development agenda, the message is clear - land is not to be hoarded, and renewable energy, once allotted, must translate into megawatts on the grid. The government has set a target of 160 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.

On the contrary, direct exports from China attract at least 12% safeguard share in India's finished steel imports during the first three months of this financial year averaged 15.93%, making the neighbouring country the third largest steel exporter to India during this another instance, China's Shangyang Steel wrote to India's Directorate General of Foreign Trade alleging that other Chinese companies were falsifying documents affirming quality compliance. Shangyang Steel holds a certificate issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS)."The company alleged that other Chinese companies were misrepresenting the BIS certificate issued to Shangyang Steel and lying while exporting to India," the official month, the steel ministry issued a clarification saying that not only are finished and semi-finished steel imports required to adhere to quality control orders (QCOs) but also the raw material used as input needs to comply with the quality also found that some Indian importers with a BIS certificate were importing substandard steel products from China or Nepal and doing just cosmetic value addition to them."The QCO norms require importers not only to comply with the coating part for which it has certification, but also to ensure that the base material also sticks to quality norms," the official said.A BIS certificate is enforced through QCO, which the government order mainly affects the traders who act as middlemen in importing steel without adding any value to the steel. "MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises) are not affected by this order; it hurts the middle parties, and they are the ones who are creating a furore over this," the official added.
