India has removed import duties on key raw materials for electric vehicle batteries and mobile phones to strengthen domestic manufacturing and enhance export competitiveness. The move comes as the country prepares for potential US tariffs and works toward a bilateral trade agreement. The Indian government announced on Tuesday that it would eliminate import duties on several raw materials used in the production of electric vehicle (EV) batteries and mobile phones. This decision is part of a broader effort to lower tariffs and support local manufacturers in response to potential US trade restrictions.
