According to industry experts, Indian companies are experiencing heightened supply chain pressures, with freight costs projected to rise by as much as 30%. However, the situation also presents new opportunities for India to strengthen its position in the global trade ecosystem.
Stakeholders across the logistics industry agree that the tariffs have had far-reaching effects on interconnected supply chains, prompting a reevaluation of sourcing, production, and shipping strategies. As global manufacturers seek alternative trade routes and partners, India is poised to benefit from the realignment—provided it can adapt swiftly and invest in infrastructure and efficiency.
The current shake-up, while challenging, could accelerate India’s role as a key player in global supply chains, offering a competitive edge amid rising costs and changing trade alliances.
