Editor's Take | An India-US trade war in the offing?

Trade tensions between the US and India are rising after the Trump administration stopped duty benefits on exports worth $5.6 billion from the country.

India said the withdrawal of the Generalised System of Preference (GSP) status would not have much impact on bilateral trade.

However, New Delhi is considering imposing retaliatory tariffs on US imports worth $10.6 billion, which may come into effect from April 1.
