New Delhi, April 13: Industry leaders and experts on Sunday welcomed the Donald Trump administration슬롯사이트™s decision to exempt smartphones, computers and other electronics imported to the country from reciprocal tariffs -- a move which has given India a definitive edge over China.

슬롯사이트œNow, there will be no extraordinary disruption This is the time to boost capacities and long-term trend against China will remain robust. However, the incredible shock of the last few weeks is a tectonic event and the realignments are bound to happen,슬롯사이트� said Pankaj Mohindroo, Chairman, India Cellular and Electronics Association (ICEA).
China still has 20 per cent tariffs on iPhones, laptops, tablets and smartwatches and only reciprocal tariffs have been removed for China. On the other hand, India has 슬롯사이트œzero tariff슬롯사이트� on iPhones and all smartphones, laptop and tablets exported to US. Vietnam also has 슬롯사이트œzero tariff슬롯사이트� on all Samsung (and others) smartphones, laptop and tablets exported to US.
So India and Vietnam are similarly placed on tariffs on above products and both enjoy 20 per cent tariff advantage over China. The US exemption applies to products entering the US or removed from warehouses as early as April 5, according to the Customs notice. The exemptions also include other electronic devices and components, including semiconductors, solar cells, and memory cards.
