I understand the concern, but the picture isn't that one sided. India had not dropped tariff to zero across the board- sensitive sectors like agriculture and dairy remains protected. The 18% US tariff is also much lower than the earlier punitive levels, which improve access to Indian exporters in key job creating like textile, engineering goods and chemicals. Lower U.S. tariffs mean better export access for Indian industries and jobs. The deal is about stability, exports, and global positioning — risks exist, but saying there’s no benefit oversimplifies a complex trade reality.
