The Modi government has followed through on a pledge to introduce tariffs onto a variety of ‘non-essential imports’ in order to stabilize the country’s economy. In all, 19 product categories will be targeted for new duties, including gemstones, plastics, jet fuel, home appliances, air conditioners, footwear, speakers, luggage, and others.
