Indian textiles, jewellery at risk of 50% Trump tariffs; pharma, phones exempt
U.S. President Donald Trump imposed an additional 25% tariff on goods imported from India this week, citing New Delhi's continued purchase of Russian oil. The new import tax, effective 21 days after August 7, will raise duties on some Indian goods to as high as 50% - among the highest levied on any U.S. trading partner. While some sectors like smartphones, pharmaceuticals and energy are currently exempt from any reciprocal tariffs, other items like gems and jewellery, textiles and some auto components, which make up a large part of Indian exports to the U.S., will take a hit. Productivity Tool Zero to Hero in Microsoft Excel: Complete Excel guide By Metla Sudha Sekhar View Program Finance Introduction to Technical Analysis & Candlestick Theory By Dinesh Nagpal View Program Finance Financial Literacy i e Lets Crack the Billionaire Code By CA Rahul Gupta View Program Digital Marketing Digital Marketing Masterclass by Neil Patel By Neil Patel View Program Finance Technical Analysis Demystified- A Complete Guide to Trading By Kunal Patel View Program Productivity Tool Excel Essentials to Expert: Your Complete Guide By Study at home View Program Artificial Intelligence AI For Business Professionals Batch 2 By Ansh Mehra View Program Below are some of the largest exports to the U.S. from India. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Top 15 Most Beautiful Women in the World Undo SMARTPHONES Apple Inc suppliers Foxconn Hon Hai, Tata Electronics, Pegatron Corp and Wistron Infocomm are the largest exporters from India to the U.S., shipping smartphones and other products worth nearly $7 billion in 2024. In the first six months of 2025, the companies have already exported goods worth $11 billion, commercially available customs data showed. Live Events Smartphones are currently exempt from tariffs, in a win for Apple that is gearing up to launch iPhone 17 next month and has gradually increased manufacturing in India as it diversifies from China. Most iPhones sold in the U.S. are now made in India. PHARMACEUTICALS Dr Reddy's Laboratories , Zydus Lifesciences , Hetero Labs, Lupin , Aurobindo Pharma and Sun Pharmaceutical are top exporters of drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients to the U.S. In 2024, they shipped goods worth $3.6 billion and from January to June 2025 they have already exported drugs worth $3.7 billion to the U.S. The sector is currently exempt from tariffs as generic medicines are crucial for affordable healthcare. GEMS & JEWELLERY The United States is the largest market for India's gems and jewellery sector, accounting for goods worth $10 billion last year, making up nearly 30% of its total global sales. Diamond and gem manufacturers Shree Ramkrishna Exports, Gia India and Kiran Gems are the largest exporters to the U.S. India's Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council has warned that the tariffs could bring the industry to a standstill, especially with competing manufacturing hubs such as Turkey, Vietnam and Thailand being taxed at lower rates. TEXTILES India's textile industry is already receiving panic-stricken calls from customers after Trump announced the additional 25% tariff. Apparel and textile companies like Shahi Exports, Welspun , Indo Count Industries , Trident and Gokaldas Exports are top exporters that are likely to take a hit with tariffs rising to 50%. In 2024, the companies exported goods worth over $2 billion and in the first half of 2025 shipped products of about $1 billion to U.S. clients including Walmart, Target, Costco and Gap. AUTO COMPONENTS India's auto components sector has grown rapidly over the last few years and is one of the few industries that records a trade surplus. The U.S. is its largest export market, making up close to a third of global trade. In 2024, India exported components worth $6.6 billion to the U.S. Of this, over $3.5 billion comprised parts for cars and small trucks that are currently exempt from the 50% tariff and will pay just 25%. The main exporters include Sona Comstar and Samvardhan Motherson. However, exports of components for commercial vehicles like large trucks and agriculture equipment, worth about $3 billion, will attract a 50% tariff. Bharat Forge , whose customers include companies like Caterpillar and Volvo, and John Deere are among the largest exporters of such parts. ENERGY AND RENEWABLES Manufacturers of solar equipment like cells and modules, wind turbines and other energy products have significant exports to the U.S. but with little to worry about so far as they are exempt from tariffs. Companies including billionaire Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries , Mundra Solar, a unit of conglomerate Adani Group, Waaree Energies , LM Wind Power, Schneider Electric and GE Power are among the largest exporters of energy and renewable equipment.

Strong APSEZ performance, Adani's transition to non-executive director gets analyst backing
Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone 's (APSEZ) robust first quarter revenue growth and margin improvement across major business verticals won the backing of leading brokerages, who saw the company as a long-term proxy for India's trade and infrastructure growth. Leading brokerages, including Goldman Sachs, HSBC, Kotak, and Jefferies, have issued a unanimous 'BUY' rating on APSEZ, as a positive sentiment followed a robust first-quarter performance. Productivity Tool Zero to Hero in Microsoft Excel: Complete Excel guide By Metla Sudha Sekhar View Program Finance Introduction to Technical Analysis & Candlestick Theory By Dinesh Nagpal View Program Finance Financial Literacy i e Lets Crack the Billionaire Code By CA Rahul Gupta View Program Digital Marketing Digital Marketing Masterclass by Neil Patel By Neil Patel View Program Finance Technical Analysis Demystified- A Complete Guide to Trading By Kunal Patel View Program Productivity Tool Excel Essentials to Expert: Your Complete Guide By Study at home View Program Artificial Intelligence AI For Business Professionals Batch 2 By Ansh Mehra View Program The company also announced that Gautam Adani will cease to be a Key Managerial Personnel (KMP) and will now serve as the non-executive chairman, transitioning from his earlier role as Executive Chairman. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Orthopedic Knee Surgeon: Suffering From Pain After Age 50? Do This Every Morning Wellnee In a note, Jefferies said Q1 EBITDA was 14 per cent above its estimates, led by domestic ports margin improvement and 2.0-2.9 times year-on-year revenue rise in logistics and marine. "Management reiterated its focus on absolute EBITDA growth, as the company intends to deliver end-to-end solutions vs pure volume growth," it said, adding FY26 volume guidance at 505-515 million tonnes (12-14 per cent rise yoy) was maintained. Live Events HSBC Global Investment Research said the company delivered robust Q1 revenue growth and margin improvements across major business verticals. "Strong ramp-up of new assets, turnaround in international port and logistics margins underscore intact earnings trajectory." Port throughput grew 11 per cent to 121 million tonnes, backed by 6 per cent growth in domestic and a 4 times jump in international. New asset additions (Vizhinjam and Gopalpur) offset weakness in Mundra, which saw a 6 per cent throughput decline due to geopolitical restrictions and embargoes, and softer coal handling due to lower thermal energy demand. "We lift FY26-28 EBITDA (estimate) by 2 per cent, reflecting better-than-expected margin improvement," it said, adding Vizhinjam and Colombo terminals should strengthen its capacity and pricing power. Goldman Sachs said while tariff-related uncertainty will remain, APSEZ's strong portfolio of port assets leverages it for market share gains (as ports of Vizinjham, Colombo and Tanzania ramp up in FY26 and Gangavaram regains its volumes), resulting in 12.5 per cent volume growth. Kotak Institutional Equities said APSEZ grew its EBITDA 30 per cent year-on-year, while facing head-on specific issues on imported coal and the transhipment business. "The port business continues to expand margins. It continues to add brownfield capacities judiciously and make its presence felt in new markets." Reported financial numbers came in better than expectations. Logistics and Marine revenue drove the growth, analysts at Goldman Sachs said in their report. For the quarter, the company reported a 21 per cent year-on-year increase in revenue to Rs 9,126 crore, while net profit rose 6.5 per cent to Rs 3,314.6 crore compared to the same period last year. Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) rose 13 per cent to Rs 5,494 crore, although margins narrowed to 60.2 per cent from 64.1 per cent in the same quarter last year. APSEZ has given a revenue guidance of Rs 36,000 crore to Rs 38,000 crore for the current fiscal (FY26) and an EBITDA forecast of Rs 21,000 crore to Rs 22,000 crore. The capex estimate has been put at Rs 11,000 crore to Rs 12,000 crore. "Strong ramp-up of new assets and a turnaround in international port and logistics margins underscore an intact earnings trajectory," said HSBC. Jefferies appreciated the management's continued focus: "Management reiterated its commitment to absolute EBITDA growth as the company shifts towards delivering end-to-end solutions, rather than purely volume-driven growth."
