Intro

Washington’s latest tariff hike isn’t just a line in a policy paper. In India, it shows up in half-finished orders, idle machines, and nervous exporters. The U.S. says the penalties are for Russian oil, for blocking American goods, for standing firm with BRICS. While medicines and electronics may be spared, engineering firms — makers of auto parts, steel castings, heavy machinery — are already feeling the strain.

In this episode, we discuss what the tariff war means for factories and the people who run them.

Guest: Pankaj Chadha, Chairman of the Engineering Exports Promotion Council of India (EEPC)
