<h1>IndiaUS trade deal: reciprocal tariff reductions announced, lowering US tariff on Indian imports and expanding market access.</h1> India and the United States agreed reciprocal tariff adjustments reducing the US tariff on Indian imports from 25% to 18% while India will lower tariffs across agricultural products, manufactured goods, chemicals and medical devices. The US will nonetheless retain an 18% tariff on certain imports citing a persistent trade deficit, and earlier higher tariff measures remain relevant as background. The agreement is presented as enabling increased market access and commercial opportunities for exporters on both sides, with practical effect of tariff rollback and enhanced bilateral trade liberalisation commitments.
