IMF report: Too coy for a Trump-shaken world
Mint Kolkata
|July 31, 2025
The Fund's 'World Economic Outlook' only has hints to offer on a global trade response to Trump's tariff turmoil. India stares at a 25% plus US levy but we have others in the same boat
-
At the best of times, the World Economic Outlook (WEO) published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) does not pose any risk to human vision with blinding new insights. Ditto for its three quarterly updates. But these are not the best of times. On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump used his very own microblog platform Truth Social to declare that "while India is our friend," imports from here would have to pay a tariff of 25%, plus a penalty for assorted US grievances, from 1 August.
Other countries have had to contend with such posts too. As the world's economies toss and turn amid choppy seas of trade uncertainty, policy watchers look to global bodies like the IMF for clues on how to reach calmer waters.

Investors expect AI use to soar. That's not happening
An uncertain outlook for interest rates. Businesses may be holding off on investment until the fog clears. In addition, history suggests that technology tends to spread in fits and starts. Consider use of the computer within American households, where the speed of adoption slowed in the late 1980s. This was a mere blip before the 1990s, when they invaded American homes.

Can I claim TDS refund despite missing return filing deadline?
I am an NRI living in Dubai and have investments in Indian listed stocks. One of the companies I invested in, did a buyback in March, on which Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) was deducted. At that time, I was advised by a friend that I could claim a refund of TDS at the time of filing my tax return due to the benefits of the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA).
