WITH US President Donald Trump's 50% tariff on Indian goods now in effect, Gujarat's Surat—a city reliant on its diamonds and textile industries—faces an unprecedented disruption.

Jayanti Savaliya, regional president of the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC), warned that the new pricing will drive American buyers away.
