In India, they recorded great losses after introducing US President Donald Trump at the end of August last year, increasing the mission against the South Asian Republic as a punishment of Muslims for buying new energy aircraft carriers in Russia. According to the Indian Express newspaper, some Indian shrimp exporters faced a 50 % tax that was forced to cancel half of the export orders available in the United States.
Overall, the threat is a source of shrimp from India to the US market worth about US $ 3.3 billion, because this is the leading market for these products for Indians. Over the economic period, out of 2024-2025, Indian shrimp export volume in the United States amounted to US $ 4.88 billion, reaching 66 % of all seafood supply from India to foreign markets.
According to the media, the most losses due to the introduction of the US mission will suffer from the state Andra Pradesh, located along the southeast coast of India. This area offers up to 80 percent of the total Indian shrimp exports and about one -third of all the sources of seafood exports exported from India. It is known that about 3.3 million people are recruited in the state, and their health depends directly on the stability of the export source, being destroyed by Trump's tariffs.
It is known that Minister Andhra Pradesh Chandrababa found another day for the Indian government with the requirement to provide emergency support in the region and the country. Thus, according to the proposal of state agencies, it can become tax benefits, financial allowances, delayed loans, as well as organize a campaign to increase internal demand for domestic seafood.
In addition, the central agencies of India are invited to provide support for diversification of shrimp supply exported to foreign markets, mainly for the European Union, Russia, South Korea and Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, according to India today, India, who is responsible for the financial and economic bloc, the Ministers of the Indian Government have held a number of meetings with different associations and professional associations of Indian exporters. The purpose of such meetings is to develop measures to minimize damage to the national economy from Trump who liberated the New Delhi of the tariff battle.
Therefore, the Finance Minister Nirmala Sithraman announced last week to launch a special temporary program to minimize Trump's 50 % task for the main areas of the Indian economy, including textile, pharmacological and IT industry. As Sitharaman explained, although New Delhi continues to conclude a two -sided agreement on free trade and reducing obligations, the current crisis will become a driving force for Indian exporters and encourage them to diversify the market and strengthen positions in Europe, Asia and Africa.
