Indian Exports to US- America is imposing 50% tariff on Indian products. The purpose of these strict rules, which came into effect from August 27, was to break the back of Indian exports. But, this move of Trump does not seem to be successful. Despite heavy tariffs, there was a strong increase in Indian exports to America in November 2025.
New Delhi. US President Donald Trump had tried to suppress Indian business by imposing 50 percent tariff on India. But, this tariff completely went up in smoke in the month of November. Ignoring all the restrictions and high tariff rates, India exported heavily to America. There has been a strong jump of 22% in India’s exports to America in November 2025. While exports to America were $5.70 billion in November 2024, it increased to $6.98 billion in November 2025. The figures for November 2025 are not only a slap on Trump’s policies, but also show the strength of the Indian economy which is capable of withstanding any global pressure.
America is imposing 50% tariff on Indian products. The purpose of these strict rules, which came into effect from August 27, was to break the back of Indian exports. Its effect was visible in the first two months of September and October and there was a decline in exports, but by November the situation changed. The demand for Indian products, especially engineering, electronics and textiles, in the American market is so strong that buyers are preferring to buy Indian goods even after paying increased taxes.
10 year record broken
Commerce Secretary Commerce Secretary Rajesh Aggarwal said that after the imposition of 50% tariff, Indian exports had definitely suffered a setback in September and October, but in November we not only compensated for that loss but also set a new record. Aggarwal said that November has been a great month for India. In terms of total merchandise exports, we have broken the record of the month of November in the last 10 years. “We were never able to cross the $38 billion mark, but this time we have exported $38.13 billion.” Overall, India’s total merchandise exports (including all countries) have increased by 19.38% year-on-year to $38.13 billion.
reduction in trade deficit
Big relief on trade deficit front: Not only in exports, India has also achieved great success in reducing its trade deficit. The trade deficit, which had reached a record $41.68 billion in October, came down to $24.53 billion in November. Trade deficit has decreased due to increase in goods sent to other countries including America and reduction in import of gold and crude oil.
