Shares of Indian textile and gems & jewellery exporters cracked up to 7 per cent in intra-day trades on Thursday, after the US sanctioned up to 25 per cent tariffs on India.
The US President on Wednesday post market-hours announced a
tariff rate of 25 per cent on Indian goods imported in the US starting from August 1, 2025. President Donald Trump also said an additional penalty will be imposed on India for its defence and energy procurements from Russia.
Experts believe the sharp tariff hit could have a significant adverse impact on India's shipments to the US, which accounts for about a fifth of its exports.
