What is a small tariff among friends?
US President Donald Trump deposited 25% of the “friend” of India and other sanctions for the purchase of Russian oil from 1 August, although both countries negotiate a business agreement.
Although there is little clarity of the impact of new tariffs and sanctions, this step has so far made India a disadvantage on other countries that concluded trade agreements with the US, with their tariffs in the range of 10-20%.
India has so far refused to admit the American demand for greater access to its agriculture and the milk sectors.

While the IMF quoted a stronger remodeling of trade, lower efficient American tariffs and improved financial conditions as key drivers in the first half of the year, she also said that the risks for projections remained in favor of a disadvantage.

The giants are a backward share of profit
Indian markets are dominated by large companies, with 10% TOP 10% of more than 90% of net profits. This began to change after the pandemic, because smaller companies have gained land during a wider recovery. But this comeback now runs steam.
