India has notified the WTO of plans to impose retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods in response to higher U.S. import duties on Indian automobile products, with a 90-day tariff pause set to expire on July 9.
India has proposed retaliatory measures against the United States under World Trade Organization (WTO) rules, targeting selected U.S. goods in response to increased American tariffs on automobile imports.
According to a WTO notification cited by the Press Trust of India, New Delhi intends to suspend certain trade concessions by raising tariffs on specific U.S.-origin products. The move comes as a response to safeguard measures adopted by the U.S. in March, which raised tariffs by 25% on passenger vehicles, light trucks, and auto parts imported from India.
The retaliatory proposal coincides with the end of a 90-day tariff suspension announced by U.S. President Donald Trump in April, which expires on July 9. Despite ongoing trade discussions, no agreement has yet been reached between Washington and New Delhi.
India’s notification to the WTO Council for Trade in Goods formalises its intention to act within WTO provisions, should the U.S. proceed with implementing the tariff hikes.
