Despite US tariffs hike to 15%, most countries better off: Where India, others stand

Soon after the US Supreme Court struck down tariffs imposed by the Donald Trump administration, the US President said he would impose a 10% levy on all goods coming into America, using another legal provision. Hours later, he jacked this up to 15%.

The 15% tariffs announced Saturday (February 21) are the maximum allowed under this never-used trade law (under Section 122 of the 1974 Trade Act). Secondly, this is temporary, given that the provision only allows the new tariffs to stay in place for around five months. After that, the American government must seek US Congressional approval.

What this means for different countries

At least for now, with this flat rate of 15%, most major countries are in a better situation than before Friday’s court ruling. India, China, South Korea, Japan, almost all of ASEAN, Kazakhstan, Turkey, South Africa, Libya, Brazil, Mexico and Canada are now at a lower rate, to be implemented from February 24.
