India Delays Tariffs on Goods of US Origin

Posted by Matt Schmitt on 9/24/18 5:00 PM

On September 17, 2018, the Government of India’s Ministry of Finance delayed the implementation of previously announced tariffs on goods of U.S. origin until November 2, 2018.

The list of tariffs that was originally sent to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in May contained additional rates of tariffs on a variety of agricultural, textile, steel and aluminum, and other goods. The list of tariffs are in response to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum products from India.
