In what comes as a sharp reaction to Elon Musk’s meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, US President Donald Trump called India “a very hard place” to do business in “because of the tariffs”. He accused India of having the highest tariffs, as he said Musk met PM Modi, as the Tesla CEO is running a company. Earlier, Trump announced reciprocal tariffs in which he explicitly mentioned India, saying, “Traditionally, India is right at the top of the pack pretty much. There are a couple of smaller countries that are more, but India charges tremendous tariffs.”
