This timely discussion comes amid a sharp escalation in U.S.–India trade tensions, with recent reciprocal and “secondary” tariffs pushing duties on key Indian exports—such as textiles, gems & jewellery, and automotive components—to as high as 50%. While pharmaceuticals, electronics, and renewables remain exempt, the impact on manufacturing, jobs, and investment is already reverberating across the economy.

 

Our session will explore the macroeconomic implications, sectoral challenges, and strategic pathways for Indian enterprises to adapt and seize emerging opportunities.

Join us for a macroeconomic deep-dive into how tariffs are shaping India’s external trade strategy, investor sentiment, and global economic positioning in 2025 and beyond.
