Aug 06, 2025 19:46

Trump imposes 50% tariff on Indian goods as penalty for buying Russian oil. The additional levy comes into effect in 21 days.

Washington, Aug 6 (PTI) US President Donald Trump on Wednesday slapped an additional 25 per cent tariff on goods coming from India as penalty for New Delhi's continued buying of Russian oil.

Trump signed an executive order imposing the additional tariff less than 14 hours before his initial tariffs were to come into effect.

After the order, the total tariff on Indian goods, barring a small exemption list, will be 50 per cent.

While the initial duty becomes effective on August 7, the additional levy will come into effect after 21 days.
