India may withdraw additional import duty notification on 29 US products

29 Jun 2018 Evaluate

India may withdraw the notification to levy additional import duty on as many as 29 US products, to be effective from August 4, if both the sides are able to sort out the differences over tariffs before that date. A delegation will visit anytime after the mid of next month to finalise the final list of identified products on which a certain kind of announcement would be made by political leaders of both the sides. In a retaliatory move against the tariff hike by Washington, India has hiked customs duty on several goods, including Bengal gram, lentils and artemia, imported from the US.

India is pressing for exemption from high duty imposed by the US on certain steel and aluminium products, resumption of export benefits to certain domestic products under their Generalised System of Preferences (GSP), greater market access for its products from sectors, including agriculture, automobile, auto components and engineering. Nearly 3,500 Indian products from sectors such as chemicals and engineering get duty free access to the US market under the GSP, introduced in 1976. On the other hand, the US is demanding greater market access for its agri and manufacturing products.

The Indian side informed them about huge potential to increase trade in areas like oil and gas and civil aircrafts. India and the US are having two track discussions to increase trade in short and medium term, and identify long term trade potentials. India’s exports to the US in 2017-18 stood at $47.9 billion, while imports were $26.7 billion. The trade balance is in favour of India.
