CHENNAI:

That's because the US has levied higher tariffs on India's main competitors in the global market. Vietnam will suffer a 46% tariff on all exports while Sri Lanka will have 44% tariffs and Bangladesh 37%. China, the biggest exporter of textiles to the US, will have to pay 54% more (34% reciprocal tariff plus the 20% tariff levied after Trump returned to office in January).
