India and the US are discussing a new trade deal, but officials say it is too early to reveal details. US President Donald Trump claimed India agreed to cut tariffs, calling them "massive" and "restrictive." Indian officials said both countries have trade interests and sensitivities. Talks began after Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Trump met in February. India has already lowered tariffs on some US goods. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said ongoing negotiations should be viewed in the context of India's trade deals with other nations. The discussions aim to boost trade, reduce barriers, and strengthen supply chains.
