The Trump Administration on Monday outlined plans to implement a 50% tariff on products from India, the latest signal that the U.S. plans to push ahead with the higher duties. The notice posted by the Department of Homeland Security said that the increased levies would hit Indian products “that are entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on August 27, 2025.” President Trump announced plans earlier this month to double tariffs on Indian goods from 25% to 50% due to India’s purchases of Russian oil, in hopes of pressuring Russian President Vladimir Putin to the negotiating table to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
