India–US Trade Tensions Rise Over Steel and Auto Tariffs NMDC Limited reports a 38% drop in Q4 FY24 consolidated net profit RINL to Raise $23 Million Through Land Sales Amid Crisis
The Indian government is preparing a support package to mitigate the impact of recent US tariffs on steel and aluminium exports, according to official sources. The move comes as Indian producers face pressure from reduced competitiveness in the American market, one of the key destinations for these metals.
The support package is expected to include financial relief, policy interventions, and export incentives aimed at safeguarding the interests of domestic producers. Industry leaders have welcomed the development, noting that US tariffs could lead to revenue losses and disrupt ongoing trade flows.
India’s steel and aluminium sectors are critical contributors to the economy, generating employment, foreign exchange, and supporting allied industries such as infrastructure, power, and automotive. Officials stressed that the package would not only protect exporters but also ensure the industry remains resilient amid global trade tensions.
Analysts believe that the move reflects India’s strategy to balance domestic interests while pursuing diplomatic channels with the US to resolve trade disputes. The package is also likely to boost confidence among producers, securing jobs and investments in the metals sector.
