No direct impact of US tariffs on domestic industry, says steel secy

The imposition of tariffs by the US will not have a direct impact on the domestic steel industry as India's own consumption of the alloy is growing, Steel Secretary Sandeep Poundrik said on Wednesday. Besides, the exports of steel to the US is around lakh tonnes -- out of 152 million tonnes production, the senior ministry official said in a session at 'FT Live Energy Transition Summit India' in the national capital. "So, if we take direct impact on steel, it's not much because, practically speaking, we don't export much steel to the US," Poundrik said in reply to a question related to the US tariffs. Last year, India's total steel exports to the US stood at around 1,00,000 tonnes. Similarly, India does not import much steel from the US. So, the steel trade between India and the US is not very direct, he said. However, there may be some indirect impact because of the products made of steel that are traded between the two countries, Poundrik said. The domestic production of steel wa

India's exports to US dip as Trump tariffs erode competitiveness: GTRI

India's exports to the US are falling as high tariffs imposed by the Trump administration have started eroding the price competitiveness of domestic goods in Washington, think tank GTRI said on Wednesday. August shipments to the US plunged to USD 6.7 billion, down 16.3 per cent from July -- the steepest monthly fall of 2025 -- as US duties doubled to 50 per cent by month's end, it said. In July, exports dipped 3.6 per cent to USD 8 billion over June. The month of June had also seen a decline of 5.7 per cent to USD 8.3 billion over May. May 2025 was the last month of growth, as shipments to the US rose 4.8 per cent over April to USD 8.8 billion. In April, exports to the US stood at USD 8.4 billion. "The slide in exports closely tracks the rapid escalation of tariffs," Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI) Founder Ajay Srivastava said. Until April 4, Indian goods entered the US at normal MFN (most favoured nation) rates. From April 5, Washington imposed a universal 10 per cent tar

Brazil braces for new US sanctions after Bolsonaro conviction angers Trump

Brazil braced Friday for possible new US sanctions linked to former President Jair Bolsonaro's conviction on coup charges, after the administration of President Donald Trump warned it would respond "accordingly." Trump said he was "very unhappy" with the conviction, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on his X account that the US government would "respond accordingly to this witch hunt." Brazil's Foreign Ministry called Rubio's comments an inappropriate threat that would not intimidate the government, adding that the country's judiciary is independent and that Bolsonaro was granted due process. "Threats like the one made today by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a statement that attacks Brazilian authority and ignores the facts and compelling evidence in the case files, will not intimidate our democracy," Brazil's foreign office said on X. Sen Rogrio Carvalho, the government leader in the Senate, told The Associated Press in a phone interview Friday that the administrat
