A US trade delegation led by Deputy USR Switzer will visit India from December 10 to 12 for discussions on ongoing tariff issues. While this is not a formal negotiation round, both sides are hoping to make strong progress on remaining trade concerns. Analysts say the visit aims to finalize the first tranche of the trade deal, including reciprocal tariff adjustments, ahead of year-end. Key decisions will still be made at higher levels, but this step could pave the way for closer alignment between the two countries. Markets are keeping a keen eye on potential outcomes, as any positive development could impact bilateral trade and investor sentiment.
