Textile exports of Gujarat are facing losses due to the 50% US tariff; the industry demands a 10% export incentive from the government.
India’s textile exports are in serious trouble after the US put a 50% tax on all imports from India. This is a significant blow for Gujarat’s textile hubs, Surat and Ahmedabad, which account for a substantial share of their goods being sold to the US. Industry leaders are asking the government for a 10% export incentive to reduce the damage and find new markets.
