At WTO, India proposes retaliatory duties against US over auto tariffs
New Delhi: India on Friday proposed imposing retaliatory duties under the WTO (World Trade Organisation) norms against the US over American tariffs on automobile sector in the name of safeguard measures . "The proposed suspension of concessions or other obligations would take the form of an increase in tariffs on selected products originating in the United States," according to a notification of the WTO being circulated at the request of India. India has notified the WTO's Council for Trade in Goods of its proposed suspension of concessions and other obligations under certain WTO provisions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Remember Him? Sit Down Before You See What He Looks Like Now 33 Bridges Undo "This notification is made in connection with safeguard measures extended by the United States of America on imports of automobile parts from India," it said. On March 26 this year, the US adopted a safeguard measure in the form of a tariff increase of 25 per cent ad valorem on imports of passenger vehicles and light trucks, and on certain automobile parts from India. Live Events These measures apply from May 3, 2025 as regards automobile parts, and for an unlimited duration. The measures have not been notified by the United States to the WTO, but are, in essence, safeguard measures. India has maintained that the measures taken by the United States are not consistent with the GATT (General Agreement on Trade and Tariff) 1994 and the agreement on Safeguards. As consultations sought by India on these tariffs have not taken place, "India reserves the right to suspend concessions or other obligations", it added. The safeguard measures would affect USD 2,895 million imports annually into the United States of the relevant products originating in India, on which the duty collection would be USD 723.75 million. "Accordingly, India's proposed suspension of concessions would result in an equivalent amount of duty collected from products originating in the United States," it said. The development is important as India and the US are actively negotiating an interim trade agreement to boost trade ties. India has last month taken similar measures against the US tariffs on steel and aluminium.

'You're about the worst...': Pete Hegseth explodes at old Fox News colleague over Iran coverage
On Jun 26, 2025, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth was involved in a heated exchange with one of the senior-most reporters at the Pentagon and his former colleague, Fox News' Jennifer Griffin, at the press briefing Thursday. Hegseth was addressing 'intelligence leak' claims days after the US' strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. The verbal clash between Hegseth and Griffin came amid a broader push to discredit media outlets over reporting on intelligence laying out the extent of damages done by U.S. strikes to Iranian nuclear sites. Hegseth insisted Thursday that American strikes on Iranian nuclear sites were a success, backing President Donald Trump and berating the media for questioning the results of the operation.
