U.S. President Donald Trump’s 50% tariffs on Indian imports – far steeper than those imposed on other Asia-Pacific countries – would severely curtail India’s ambitions to develop its manufacturing sector, Moody’s Ratings said on Friday.<\/p>\n

U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday imposed an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods, taking the total to 50%, citing New Delhi’s continued imports of Russian oil.<\/p>\n

The doubled tariffs may even reverse some of the gains India made in attracting global investments, the ratings agency said, flagging risks to the country’s growth and inflation.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) kept its key rates unchanged as expected and retained its “neutral” policy stance following a surprise 50-basis-point rate cut in June.<\/p>\n

According to Moody’s, curbing Russian oil imports to avoid penalty tariffs could make it more difficult for India to secure alternative crude supplies in adequate quantities promptly.<\/p>\n

Global trade uncertainties, fuelled by the U.S. tariffs, have also kept foreign investors on edge.<\/p>\n

Foreign portfolio investors have already offloaded Indian shares worth $900 million so far in August, following $2 billion in outflows in July.<\/p>\n

India’s equity benchmarks, the Nifty 50 \"\"\/NIFTY<\/a> and Sensex \"\"\/SENSEX<\/a>, slipped 2.9% in July and are down 0.7% so far in August, amid heightened investor anxiety driven by the escalating trade uncertainties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"U.S. President Donald Trump’s 50% tariffs on Indian imports – far steeper than those imposed on other Asia-Pacific…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1114,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[64,63,99,164],"class_list":["post-52074","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-business","tag-economy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52074","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52074"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52074\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52074"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52074"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52074"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
