Negotiations for India-US trade pact in good progress; likely to conclude early tranche before July 9: Sunil Barthwal

17 Jun 2025 Evaluate

Expressing an optimism over India-US trade pact, Commerce Secretary Sunil Barthwal has said that negotiations for the proposed India-US trade agreement are in good progress and the two sides are expected to agree on an early tranche of the pact before July 9. He said that Indian and the US teams are making visits to each other's country for trade talks. He added ‘We also visited the US twice. The US team also came here twice. There is good progress and we are hopeful that this will be done within the timelines’.

The US on April 2 imposed an additional 26 per cent reciprocal tariff on Indian goods but suspended it for 90 days till July 9. However, the 10 per cent baseline tariff imposed by America remains in place. India is seeking full exemption from the additional 26 per cent tariff. The US team visited India from June 5 - 11 for the talks. The negotiations will continue both virtually and physically in the days to come.

India is seeking duty concessions for labour-intensive sectors such as textiles, gems and jewellery, leather goods, garments, plastics, chemicals, shrimp, oil seeds, grapes, and bananas in the proposed trade pact. The US, in turn, wants duty concessions on certain industrial goods, automobiles - especially electric vehicles, wines, petrochemical products, dairy, and agricultural items like apples, tree nuts, and genetically modified crops.
