Overview

Tariffs, trade remedies and trade agreements that open or close markets - US Section 232 actions, anti-dumping duties, FTAs, export bans and inverted duty structures.
Energy security & supply concentration
India imports over 85% of its crude, most of its LNG and a large share of its fertiliser, coking coal and critical minerals. Much of it moves through a small number of maritime chokepoints and originates in a handful of countries
Diversification is the stated policy answer, but it takes years and usually costs more than the concentrated supply it replaces
... Read more
Supply chain weaponisation & export controls
States restricting the export of materials, technology or components to gain leverage - rare earth and magnet controls, graphite and critical mineral licensing, semiconductor equipment restrictions, fertiliser export limits
The restriction is usually announced without notice and lifted as part of a wider negotiation
... Read more
Sanctions & secondary sanctions exposure
Restrictions on trading with a sanctioned country, and the risk that doing so triggers penalties from a third country. Indian refiners buying discounted Russian crude, and exporters using dollar clearing, both sit inside this exposure
Compliance is judged by the sanctioning state rather than by the trade's own legality
... Read more
Export ban/restriction risk
The standing possibility that government restricts or prohibits export of an agricultural commodity to protect domestic availability and contain food inflation, using export duty, MEP, quotas or an outright ban
India used the full range on rice between 2022 and 2024 - a broken-rice ban, 20% duty on parboiled rice, a non-basmati white rice ban and MEPs - before unwinding them from Sep 2024
... Read more
Friend-shoring & bloc formation
Trade and investment reorganising around political alignment rather than cost alone - China-plus-one sourcing, regional trade blocs, and supply chains rebuilt among allies. India has signed or concluded agreements with the UAE, Australia, the UK and the EU while negotiating with the US
Efficiency is traded for security of supply
... Read more
India-UK FTA
The India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, negotiated from 2022 and in force from 15 July 2026, alongside a Double Contribution Convention on social security
The UK removes tariffs on ~99% of Indian tariff lines immediately. India liberalises more slowly - 64% of UK tariff lines duty-free at entry, rising to ~85% over a decade, with staged cuts on vehicles and spirits
... Read more
India-EU free trade agreement
A comprehensive trade and investment agreement between India and the European Union, negotiated over several rounds and concluded after a long hiatus. The EU is among India's largest trading partners and the agreement covers goods, services, investment and sustainability chapters
It runs alongside the India-UK CETA in force from Jul 2026 and the UAE CEPA
... Read more
India-EFTA TEPA
The Trade and Economic Partnership Agreement with the EFTA states - Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein - took effect on 1 October 2025, with phased Indian tariff elimination across a wide list and an EFTA investment commitment over fifteen years
Watches are among the clearest beneficiaries: duties that stood around 22% are being cut in stages toward zero within five years
... Read more
SEZ (special economic zones) & port-linked industrial land
Special economic zones and industrial estates developed adjacent to a port, letting occupiers import, process and re-export with minimal inland movement. The port operator monetises land alongside cargo handling
It converts a transport asset into a real estate and industrial platform
... Read more
Import parity pricing
Domestic polymer and petrochemical prices are set at the landed cost of imports - international price plus freight, insurance and customs duty - rather than by domestic production cost. Producers are price-takers on a global benchmark
Naphtha and crude feedstock spreads determine the margin against that price
... Read more
Anti-dumping duty (ADD)
A trade remedy under the Customs Tariff Act allowing India to levy duty on imports sold below normal value where they injure domestic producers. The DGTR investigates and recommends; the Finance Ministry notifies
Duties run five years and lapse unless a sunset review extends them. On ductile iron pipes an ADD against Chinese imports has been in place since 2013
... Read more
Inverted duty structure (input tax exceeds output)
A tariff structure where finished goods attract lower import duty than the components used to make them, so importing the finished product is cheaper than manufacturing it domestically. In medical devices, finished equipment has attracted duty of around 0-7.5% against components at similar or higher rates
GST inversion compounds it, since accumulated input tax credit is refundable only through a claim process that ties up working capital
... Read more
Coking coal import dependence
Metallurgical coal is the reductant in blast furnace steelmaking and has no substitute in that route. India imports roughly 85% of its coking coal requirement, around 58-70 MT a year, mainly from Australia, because domestic reserves are high-ash and unsuitable for direct use
It is typically the largest single input cost in BF-BOF steelmaking after iron ore
... Read more
China export overhang
China produces over half the world's steel and, when domestic demand weakens, exports the surplus. Its property downturn has pushed export volumes to levels not seen in years, depressing prices across Asia
India turned a net steel importer partly as a result, with imports arriving from China and via Vietnam and other routes
... Read more
China electrode exports
China holds dominant global graphite electrode capacity and exports surplus when domestic steel demand weakens. Oversupply, trade friction and Chinese dominance defined the global graphite market through 2025
Chinese capacity is also moving up into large-diameter UHP grades previously supplied by a handful of Western and Indian producers
... Read more
CRGO (grain-oriented electrical steel) import dependence
Cold-rolled grain-oriented electrical steel forms the magnetic core of every power and distribution transformer, minimising energy loss. India imports close to 90% of its requirement, with only one significant domestic producer
DGTR opened an anti-dumping investigation on 22 Jun 2026 into CRGO and amorphous metals from China, Japan, Korea and Russia, on a complaint by the sole domestic producer
... Read more
Fluorspar dependence
Fluorspar, or calcium fluoride, is the only commercial source of fluorine and India has negligible economic reserves. Supply is concentrated in China, Mexico, South Africa and Mongolia
It is classified as a critical mineral in several jurisdictions including India
... Read more
PVC resin import dependence
India consumes roughly 4.7 mtpa of PVC against domestic capacity near 1.8 mtpa, so most resin is imported and priced at import parity. Anti-dumping duties apply to certain origins
Resin is the dominant input cost for pipe manufacturers, and price swings drive channel destocking
... Read more
API & KSM import dependence
Active pharmaceutical ingredients and their key starting materials are the chemical base of formulations. India remains dependent on Chinese intermediates for many molecules despite being a large API producer
Bulk Drug PLI and China-plus-one sourcing both target that dependence
... Read more
Fitness equipment import dependence
Treadmills, cross-trainers, strength stations and most gym-grade equipment are largely imported, predominantly from China and Taiwan, with domestic manufacturing limited to simpler items and assembly
The segment grew with gym chains and home fitness, but the supply base did not move with it
... Read more
Anti-dumping - tyres (Chinese TBR)
The tyre-specific application of anti-dumping duty. After India relaxed duties on Chinese imports in Sep 2014, TBR imports surged - roughly 40,000 units a month in FY14 rising to about 1.2 lakh by FY17, with China supplying ~92% of them
Definitive duties followed, and a countervailing duty of 17.57% currently applies to large truck and bus radials from China
... Read more
Anti-dumping - rubber chain (layered duties)
The rubber products view of trade remedies. The Directorate General of Trade Remedies investigates whether imports are sold below normal value and recommends duties, which the finance ministry imposes
In rubber the duties span the chain - carbon black, rubber chemicals and select synthetic rubbers all carry protection, with an NBR investigation opened in Oct 2024
... Read more
Safeguard duty on flat steel imports
A trade remedy against a surge in imports, distinct from anti-dumping in that it does not require proof of unfair pricing - only injury from increased volume. India imposed a provisional 12% duty on select flat steel from 21 Apr 2025
It was converted into a three-year levy from Jan 2026, tapering 12% in year one, 11.5% in year two and 11% in year three
... Read more
Anti-dumping - solar glass (with CVD)
Trade remedies on imported solar glass - anti-dumping duty addressing below-cost pricing, and countervailing duty addressing foreign subsidies. India has pursued both against Chinese and Vietnamese solar glass
CVD differs from anti-dumping in targeting the subsidy rather than the price
... Read more
Cotton import duty exemption
India normally levies 11% on imported cotton including the agriculture cess. Duty was waived from Aug to Dec 2025, then again from 1 Jun to 31 Oct 2026, with zero basic customs duty and zero AIDC on tariff heading 5201
Major Asian competitors already have duty-free cotton access
... Read more
Anti-dumping - paper and paperboard (with MIP)
Trade remedies on imported paper and paperboard, including anti-dumping duties and minimum import price proposals against China, Indonesia, Chile and others. Imports have risen with global overcapacity and ASEAN duty-free access
Domestic mills have sought protection repeatedly
... Read more
US reciprocal tariff - tyres
In Aug 2025 the US raised tariffs on Indian goods including tyres from 25% to 50%, linked to India's Russian crude purchases. In Feb 2026 they were cut to 18% under an understanding covering that sourcing
The US is India's largest tyre export destination, worth Rs 4,082 cr in FY26
... Read more
US reciprocal tariff - textiles & apparel
US tariffs on Indian goods rose to an effective 50% in Aug 2025, then fell to around 18% under the Feb 2026 understanding tied to Russian crude purchases. Textiles and apparel were among the most exposed categories
Bangladesh, Vietnam and other competitors face their own rates, so relative position matters more than the absolute level
... Read more
US reciprocal tariff - gems & jewellery
US tariffs on Indian goods reached 50% from 27 Aug 2025, hitting an industry that earns ~80% of revenue from exports with the US over 40% of global polished diamond demand. Cut and polished diamond exports to the US fell over 60% year on year in Apr-Dec 2025
The Feb 2026 India-US interim framework provides zero-duty access for natural diamonds and coloured gemstones, though lab-grown diamonds remain at 18%
... Read more
US reciprocal tariff - shrimp & marine exports
Indian shrimp exports face US tariffs that reached an effective level around 58% including anti-dumping and countervailing duties on top of reciprocal tariffs. The US is the dominant destination for Indian marine exports
EU market access depends on facility-level approvals rather than tariffs alone
... Read more
Strait of Hormuz closure (2026 Iran war)
US and Israeli operations against Iran from 28 Feb 2026 triggered Iranian action against shipping, and the Strait of Hormuz was effectively closed from 4 Mar. Transits fell from roughly 130 a day to single digits, and the IEA called it the largest supply disruption in the history of the oil market
Around 20-25% of seaborne crude and 19% of LNG normally pass through it. Brent moved past $120 at the peak and QatarEnergy declared force majeure
... Read more
Section 232 - pharmaceuticals
US Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, 1962 lets the President restrict imports found to threaten national security. A pharma probe opened Apr 2025 led to an Apr 2026 proclamation imposing a 100% tariff on patented drugs and their APIs
Phased from 31 Jul 2026 for named firms and 29 Sep 2026 for others; 20% for firms committing to US onshoring and nil for those signing MFN pricing deals
... Read more
MEP (minimum export price on farm exports)
A floor price below which exports of a commodity may not be shipped, imposed by DGFT to restrain outbound volume and protect domestic supply and prices. It is an administrative lever applied at short notice
On rice it was used heavily through 2023-24: $1,200/tonne on basmati from Aug 2023, cut to $950, then removed in Sep 2024; the $490 floor on non-basmati white rice was lifted in Oct 2024
... Read more
Section 232 - copper semi-finished products
US proclamation of 30 Jul 2025 imposing a 50% tariff from 1 Aug 2025 on the copper input value of semi-finished copper products - pipes, wires, rods, sheets, tubes - and copper-intensive derivatives such as cables, fittings and connectors
Copper input materials (ores, concentrates, cathodes, anodes) and scrap were left out. A phased tariff on refined copper of 15% in 2027 and 30% in 2028 is recommended, with the measure modified in Apr 2026
... Read more
Class 8 trucks (NA exports)
Class 8 is the North American heavy truck category above 33,000 lb gross weight - the long-haul tractor segment. It is a major export market for Indian fasteners, forgings and precision components
The cycle is sharp and well documented, swinging with freight rates, fleet replacement and emission-regulation deadlines rather than with general economic growth
... Read more
ASEAN rerouting / FTA imports
Goods from a country facing Indian trade duties being routed through an FTA partner to claim preferential tariffs. Under the ASEAN-India agreement India eliminated duties on roughly 74% of tariff lines, and many steel lines attract nil duty
CAROTAR 2020 rules require the importer to hold origin information and permit verification, but enforcement depends on certification
... Read more
Africa roofing exports
Export of galvanised and colour-coated roofing sheet to African markets, where housing construction is growing, local coating capacity is limited and Indian product competes on price and freight
It has become a meaningful outlet for surplus Indian coating capacity
... Read more
Refractory magnesia & alumina import dependence
Dead-burned and fused magnesia, refractory-grade bauxite and calcined alumina are the primary raw materials for refractory bricks and monolithics, and China dominates global supply of all three
Refractory raw material costs are typically the largest input line, so Chinese export policy and environmental crackdowns transmit directly into Indian refractory costs
... Read more
TAMP (major port tariff authority) regulation
The Tariff Authority for Major Ports historically set rates at government-owned major ports, while private and state ports priced freely. Reform has progressively freed major port tariffs, moving toward market determination
It created a long-standing regulatory asymmetry between major and non-major ports
... Read more
Rolling-stock exports
Export of coaches, locomotives, wagons and components, alongside consultancy on railway projects abroad. Indian manufacturers have supplied rolling stock and railway engineering services to African, Asian and Latin American markets
It uses domestic scale as the base for international bidding
... Read more
Sanctions-driven supply reconfiguration - carbon black
European sanctions and import restrictions on Russian-origin carbon black and feedstock, which removed a significant supplier from the European market
European buyers have sought alternative sources including India
... Read more
FTWZ (free trade warehousing zone) duty deferral
A designated zone where imported goods can be stored, consolidated, labelled and re-exported without payment of customs duty until they enter the domestic market. Duty is deferred rather than waived
It suits distribution hubs serving multiple markets from India
... Read more
Export quota permission
Sugar exports are permitted only against a government-notified quota, with volumes set season by season against domestic stock and price conditions. 15 lakh tonnes was permitted for 2025-26 after a period of restriction
Exports have been banned outright in tight years
... Read more
Instant coffee export hub
India processes green coffee into soluble and instant coffee for export, often as private-label supply to international brands. It is a value-addition step well above green bean export
India is predominantly a robusta producer, which suits instant coffee manufacture
... Read more
Export concentration & certification
Processed food exporters serving diaspora and ethnic markets can derive nearly all revenue from exports, concentrated in a few destination countries. Access requires FDA, BRC, IFS or equivalent food-safety certification per market
Mango pulp and frozen products run as seasonal campaigns tied to crop availability
... Read more
FIBC (flexible intermediate bulk container) exports & certification
Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers are woven polypropylene bulk bags for chemicals, food and minerals, and are largely an export business for Indian manufacturers. Food and pharmaceutical grades require certified clean-room production and traceability
Jute packaging carries statutory reservation for certain foodgrain and sugar packing
