India has no basis to hit back against steel, auto tariffs: US

The US has informed the WTO that India's proposed retaliatory tariffs on American steel, aluminum, and automobiles lack a legal foundation. This stance comes after India asserted that US safeguard measures would significantly impact its exports, leading to substantial duty collections. The US defends its tariffs under a national security statute, even as bilateral trade agreement talks continue.
