The 26 per cent "discounted reciprocal tariff" on Indian goods imposed by Trump would have limited impact on key agricultural exports such as seafood and rice when compared to higher duties imposed on the regional competitors, according to Gulati, former chairman of the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP).
India could maintain or even expand its agricultural exports to the United States despite the new tariffs announced by President Donald Trump, as the competing nations face even steeper duties, prominent agricultural economist Ashok Gulati said on Thursday.
He noted that while India faces 26 per cent tariffs, China faces 34 per cent, creating an 8 per cent differential advantage for the Indian exporters.
