US tariffs pose challenge and opportunity for Indian textile sector
The US has imposed a 26 per cent ad valorem duty on Indian textile imports, raising concerns over competitiveness and pricing. While higher tariffs on rivals like China and Vietnam offer India a relative edge, the burden of cost may fall on suppliers. Industry is urging proactive trade talks and market diversification to mitigate disruption and sustain export momentum.
