flag India may cut tariffs on Chinese inputs to boost manufacturing amid rising trade dependence.

flag India is considering easing tariffs and import restrictions on certain Chinese goods due to growing reliance on Chinese raw materials for key industries, despite ongoing strategic tensions. flag Officials are evaluating the lapse of anti-dumping duties and reduced tariffs on inputs like silicon wafers, antibiotics, and engineering components, where domestic supply is limited. flag This shift aims to support manufacturing competitiveness amid rising costs and global supply chain pressures, especially as countries like Vietnam import Chinese inputs duty-free. flag Imports from China rose 16% to $11 billion in September 2025, with nine-month totals reaching $91 billion. flag The trade deficit with China could reach $120–130 billion in coming years, and the government is also reviewing foreign investment rules for Chinese firms on a case-by-case basis where security risks are low.
