Watch Former Union Minister and Chair of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance, Jayant Sinha, break down the impact of Trump’s 50% tariffs on Indian goods and India’s calibrated response. In an in-depth conversation, he explains the difference between the two tariff sets—one already in effect and another under discussion—and their implications for key export sectors. Backing Prime Minister Modi’s firm stand to protect farmers, Sinha warns against knee-jerk retaliation, urging a negotiated settlement like those achieved by the UK, EU, and Japan. He emphasizes India’s broader strategic ties with the U.S. and calls for continued reforms, deeper global trade engagement, and leveraging India’s growing manufacturing power. A timely analysis of diplomacy, economics, and national interest amid rising trade tensions.
