The recent India-US trade deal, announced by President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, slashes US tariffs on Indian rice imports from 50% to 18%, unlocking massive opportunities for exporters like us at RP Global Agros Industries. This deal restores parity with rivals like Thailand and Pakistan, now at 19% tariffs, making Indian basmati and non-basmati rice more price-competitive in the $1.2 billion US market. Previously burdened by high duties, our exports—such as Sargam Pure, Arafat Gate, and Orgatek brands—faced landed price disadvantages; now, we anticipate 20-30% volume growth as US buyers favor our premium quality. IREF members, including us, have already secured deals like 5,000 tonnes of basmati to the US, signaling quick market gains.
From our base at Nadana Road, Taraori, Karnal, Haryana, RP Global Agros Industries (+91 8278260099) has pioneered US exports of aromatic basmati varieties. The deal enhances profitability by cutting costs per tonne, enabling us to scale shipments of Sargam (known for its long-grain purity) and Arafat Gate (a favorite for ethnic US communities).
At RP Global, we're ramping up quality certifications to meet this surge—contact us to partner on Sargam, Arafat Gate, or Orgatek for your US needs.
With resilient demand even under prior high tariffs (exports up to 326,400 MT in 2025), this 18% rate positions India to dominate US shelves.
RP Global Agros Industries stands ready to lead, blending tradition with trade wins for mutual prosperity. Reach out at +91 8278260099.
