USA - New tax rates: The new tax rates announced by the USA have had a major impact on the global footwear market. It has been said that up to 60% tax will be imposed on shoes manufactured in Vietnam. Similarly, up to 36% tax will be imposed on shoes manufactured in India. Meanwhile, an additional 34% tax has been added to the existing 20% tax on China. Due to these high tax rates, many important global companies are coming forward to make india their main manufacturing center instead of china under the production plan called the 'China +1 strategy'.
Employment and growth opportunities: With this new situation, job opportunities are likely to increase significantly in india, especially in tamil Nadu. Already, famous companies like Nike, Adidas, Puma, and Crocs are expanding their manufacturing operations in tamil Nadu.
India taking advantage of recent changes: India's footwear exports have grown in the last few years. In the last financial year, india was exporting footwear to the US at a tax rate of 10-12%. But in the current situation, India's competitors like vietnam, Cambodia, and bangladesh are forced to data-face taxes ranging from 46% to 60%. This has created a huge market opportunity for India.
Even if tariffs continue to increase between countries, india will have a greater chance of progressing due to its industrial development. It is certain that India's contribution to the footwear manufacturing sector is going to increase. Through this, employment, investment, and growth will give new impetus to the indian economy.
