US Appeals Court Reinstates Trump Tariffs: Key Updates for India

2025-05-30
The US announced sweeping tariff hikes on April 2, 2025, under Trump’s new trade policy, directly impacting India’s exports to its largest trading partner. On April 9, 2025, Trump announced a 90-day pause on implementing higher, country-specific reciprocal tariffs, temporarily easing pressure on several countries, including India. On May 28, 2025, a US Federal Court declared the Trump administration’s broad tariffs on imports from nearly all foreign countries unlawful. However, the following day, a US Appeals Court stayed that decision, allowing the Trump administration to continue enforcing the tariffs during the appeal process.
