    Export-led growth exposes weak domestic demand as high-technology manufacturing support raises trade imbalance and employment concerns.
    China's growth has become increasingly reliant on strong exports of high-technology manufactured products, while domestic consumption and investment remain weak. Household spending is constrained by the property-sector downturn and uncertainty over jobs and wages. Policy support and investment in artificial intelligence, robotics and advanced manufacturing have strengthened exports but raised concerns about trade imbalances, excess production capacity and employment creation. The policy direction identified is to strengthen the domestic market and maintain employment while pursuing higher-quality growth.

    Indian benchmark equity indices rebounded in early trading, supported by bank and selected large-cap shares after the preceding session's decline.

    Foreign exchange market conditions lifted the rupee early, but crude prices, investor outflows and geopolitical tensions restrained gains.
    Foreign exchange market conditions supported an early appreciation of the rupee against the US dollar, while elevated crude oil prices, foreign institutional investor outflows, higher US Treasury yields and West Asia tensions limited gains. A weaker dollar and positive domestic equity-market opening provided support. Intensified US-Iran conflict and risks to regional energy exports contributed to higher crude prices and dollar demand. Higher wholesale price inflation and growth in net direct tax collection formed part of the domestic economic backdrop.

    Proposed geopolitical tariffs would target major purchasers of Russian oil, alongside broad sanctions on Russia's economic sectors.
    Proposed United States legislation would authorise tariffs of up to 100 per cent on India, China, Slovakia, Hungary and Azerbaijan as major purchasers of Russian oil. It also contemplates broad blocking sanctions affecting Russia's energy, financial and defence sectors and designated persons. The tariffs would be narrowly targeted and subject to restricted waiver authority, while certain European purchasers of Russian gas would be exempted based on limited dependence and efforts to reduce reliance on Russia.

    Rupee depreciation reflects crude oil pressures, safe-haven dollar demand, widening trade deficit, and rising global economic uncertainty
    The Indian rupee depreciated against the US dollar amid higher crude oil prices, renewed geopolitical concerns, increased safe-haven demand for the dollar, and rising global bond yields. Higher crude prices increased India's dollar-denominated import requirements, widened the trade deficit, and intensified foreign-exchange outflows. Merchandise exports increased year-on-year, but the trade deficit widened because of stronger imports. Wholesale price inflation also rose, while net direct tax collections increased on account of higher corporate tax receipts.
