India - US Tariff and Relations | News + Updates

[Yasser76]

Nice Fanfiction mate.

What part f all of Trumps actions are fiction? Are you saying Pakistanis are making it up?

Pharmaceutical sector in India makes billions of dollars annually by exporting medications made in India. With Trump putting 100% tariff on imported medications, it has targeted India again and has taken away that leverage India has in this area as well. Indian stock market Index saw a big drop on this news to near 5% in just one day with investors losing billions.

Trump's 100% tariffs on branded drugs: Indian generics spared but pose risks for pharma sector – Explained​

US President Donald Trump's announcement of a 100% tariff on imported "branded and patented pharmaceutical products" has rattled the global pharma industry, though Indian generic drug makers are largely expected to remain unaffected for now.

Trump, in a post on Truth Social on Thursday, stated: "Starting October 1st, 2025, we will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any branded or patented Pharmaceutical Product, unless a Company IS BUILDING their Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Plant in America. ‘IS BUILDING’ will be defined as, ‘breaking ground’ and/or ‘under construction.’ There will, therefore, be no Tariff on these Pharmaceutical Products if construction has started."

@Yasser76, you are one person who thinks that revisiting the thread with lies at regular intervals would convert your lies into truth. You have been trying really hard since yesterday after Trump’s decision on BRANDED pharma.

Your claim of sharp fall in Indian markets is complete BS. Indian markets fell by less than 1%. The Pharma Index dropped by just 2.17%. This minor fall happens even on normal days.
But, you have claimed this to be a sharp fall, because you are a shameless troll.

After the declaration of tariff on BRANDED Pharma, the Indian traders body representing this sector analysed this order and issued a statement, clearly mentioning that, this tariff wouldn’t affect Indian exports as branded exports make up just 1% total pharma exports.
You have also shared a tweet, which talks about negative SENTIMENT. Markets react to sentiments. Luckily, they didn’t react as speculated and hoped by people like you.

Selectively finding social media content and trying to sell lies wouldn’t work on this issue.

Try harder buddy.

50 billion market cap ecosystem coping and seething at not being able to understand why the 100 times differential (when pop is 6x) with a 5 trillion one to begin with.

Basic capital formation rates and their integrals over the last few decades etc....and why some countries are especially terrible at investment in the south asia region.

So the selective blab harvesting wedded to the ole confirmation bias. This has become mainstay in social media in general though.

There are Pakistani members that understand it (like pak factor and cpl others) and you actually can get to a fairly productive exchange. The uzair younus guy on YT is pretty good too.

one sided, illogical and biased view!

You know very little about trade and stocks and shares.

I will explain is simply for you.

Trump introduced tariffs, Indian pharma shares went down. We all agree on that point right?

Earlier in your post on this thread (Trust me people have the ability to go back a page and read your earlier posts), you stated, and I quote

"No. It is not related to India."

I think lying is second nature to you., so much so that you may not even be awaree you are doing it

If you guys are such a massive nation controlling Earth to Mars and everything in between, why don't you stand up for your nation and it's honor? Instead of writing this same content over and over, come on international media, you've been in the US for a week, you could've used that platform and tell the world

"America can eff off with it's H1B's, its not a big deal to India". Same thing with Pharma, trade tariffs and stricter rules (near denial) of US visas to Indian businessmen.

C'mon Asian elephant, let's start with you and then with your government? Let's make these statements and end this discussion. We won't have to keep posting, in fact Trump wouldn't have to keep punishing you. The issue will end for good.

Nope. You are no one. You are self declared expert on everything when it comes to trolling India.

No. It is not related to India."

Yes. I stand by that comment. If this order impacts just 1% of our exports then it doesn’t impact us and is not aimed at us.
Stop lying and trying to twist words.

Can you see why everyone on here and increasingly the world over, finds many Indians untrustworthy?

In your Lala land, this narrative would work well. You and some of your friends have been trying to sell this narrative for quite a while. Dont trust Indians if you don’t want to.
But don’t try to twist it into a world view.
I am sure that as a penny troll, you would find some social media posts and buttress your lie.
There is enough content out their to claim same thing about Pakistanis too. But, I wouldn’t waste bandwidth here to make such selective claims.

Trump tariffs on BRANDED pharma is not aimed at India. That fact is not going to change by your mental gymnastics.

I am sure that you would not utter a single word about the exact order signed by Trump, but try and create stories by posting BS from social media.
Poor attempt again.

@RajaBaja, you have still not come back to explain your claim of India making $4 Trillion from US. There are many other lies, you have been selling. Any update on $50 billion exports in 2 years from Pakistan?
This is off topic, but forced to post it here to put brakes on your trolling and posting numbers with zero proof or reference.

Please explain those false claims before putting your fingers in this pie.

Count India's loss (no matter how marginal, how narrow) everyday but not talk about Pakistan's dismal state/defeat fighting growth, inflation etc. That is the second nature of many posters here... Frankly waste of time replying/rebutting them.

They are missing the forest for the trees... with not an ounce of hope in sight

Not at all, there are many many Pakistani threads discussing the dismal state of affairs in Pakistan, but you do know the title of this thread right?

Effects us but not related to us?

You literally just contradicted yourself. You are chasing your own tail here.

Again trying to subvert the main topic and chasing your lies by mental gymnastics.

No words about the exact order mentioning BRANDED pharma.

Please try and be a worthy troll at least.

Try harder.

You see that's the difference - I never claimed whether markets going down by X% of a typical day is sign of slowdown. Man, its not even a trend over a couple of weeks of so for a specific sector/stock. These kind of movements are so short-lived.

Stock markets in short run are no indication of fundamental potential of a company. In fact, pricing in stock markets can remain at odds with underlying strengths/weakness of a company's fundamental for long times.

When folks here start peddling stock numbers (crashes or upswings) as an evidence, its laughable and ultimately sad. Feels as if I am back in markets 101 class.

it also doesnt prove you are right!


tariff, proves, biases in USA mind (which were ignored initially!), which you exploited, so your POV needs solid justification!
