<h1>Steep 50% US tariff, foreign outflows trigger equity selloff, spike export litigation risk and disclosure duties for listed firms</h1> Benchmark equity indices fell for a third day amid the imposition of a steep 50% US tariff on certain Indian exports and sustained foreign fund outflows, creating acute market volatility and sectoral exposure risks for labour-intensive exporters (textiles, leather, footwear, shrimp). Market participants face potential trade-law and compliance disputes, renegotiation of supply contracts, and heightened export litigation or challenge risks. Significant selloffs in large and mid/small caps raised disclosure and fiduciary duties for listed companies and accelerated risk to investor protection regimes. Separately, a major conglomerate announced an overseas expansion and planned IPO for its telecom subsidiary, implicating forthcoming securities filings and cross-border regulatory compliance.
