Trump's 50% tariffs on India take effect

The deadline for new US tariffs on India has arrived, increasing the total duties on goods from the South Asian country to 50%.

The additional tariffs will significantly raise duties on products such as garments, gems and jewelry, footwear, sporting goods, furniture, shrimp, and chemicals.

The Indian government has characterized Washington's decision as "unfair, unjustified, and unreasonable."
