- India seeks rollback of the proposed 26% tariff and relief on existing U.S. steel and auto tariffs, while the U.S. demands deeper cuts on farm goods, cars, and alcoholic beverages.
- India's exports to the U.S. reached $17.25 billion in April-May 2025, up from $14.17 billion the previous year, and the U.S. is India’s third-largest investor with over $68 billion FDI.
