Trade war: Action plan to analyse impact of US metal tariffs by weekend

US President Donald Trump last week signed an order imposing a 25% tariff on steel and a 10% tariff on aluminium imported into the country from all nations except Canada, Mexico and Australia

The Union government has started working out an action plan to analyse the impact of the recently imposed US tariffs on steel and aluminium and on how to deal with it.
 
In the first meeting on this on Tuesday, senior officials of the department of commerce and the ministries of steel and mines met the industry leaders to assess the impact of the US tariffs on Indian industry. A senior official later said export details had been sought from industry players and a plan would be finalised by the end of the week.
