India's labour-intensive exports including textiles, leather, and shrimp will now face a reduced 10 percent tariff following the US Supreme Court's ruling that struck down President Trump's tariffs as exceeding his authority.

India's labour-intensive exports including textiles, leather, and shrimp will now face a reduced 10 percent tariff following the US Supreme Court's ruling that struck down President Trump's tariffs as exceeding his authority. Previously, these goods faced 25 percent reciprocal tariffs under the India-US interim trade deal. However, Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminium remain at 50 percent. Trade experts argue India has strengthened its negotiating position and should leverage this development to secure better terms on agriculture, digital trade, and autonomy in dealing with non-market economies. The court's decision significantly alters the bilateral trade dynamics between the two nations.
