The US Supreme Court is reviewing Trump’s power to impose tariffs without Congress. The verdict could reshape trade authority
A decades-old law lets presidents take “emergency” trade action. Trump used it to bypass Congress and rewrite US trade norms

Even if Trump loses, he may find legal ways to sustain tariffs. Section 301 of the Trade Act is one option
India should assume US trade policy won’t shift soon. Progress depends on diplomacy, not courtroom outcomes
