US tariff threats open door to a ‘make in India’ moment

As a fresh wave of US tariff threats rattles Asia-Pacific exporters, Indian industry senses an opening to gain ground in the global manufacturing race – though analysts warn that converting opportunity into a lasting advantage will require swift and strategic reforms.

Washington’s announcement of steep new levies on imports from a range of countries, including India, earlier this month was tempered when US President Donald Trump announced a 90-day suspension. The pause – which excludes China – leaves in place only a baseline 10 per cent duty, giving affected nations a temporary window to negotiate better terms.

If and when the higher tariffs take effect, Indian exports would face a 26 per cent duty – much lower than the 46 per cent and 36 per cent levies aimed at Vietnamese and Thai goods, respectively – potentially giving the South Asian nation a relative advantage.

With formal trade talks between New Delhi and Washington expected to accelerate during this suspension period, observers say India has a chance to secure crucial concessions, especially as global manufacturers seek to further diversify supply chains long centred on China.

Indian and US trade representatives have been thrashing out a bilateral agreement since Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Washington in February and pledged in a joint declaration with Trump to expand two-way trade fourfold to US$500 billion by 2030.
