US and Korea expressed concern over India's decision to ban laptop imports, said- trade will be affected, requested reconsideration

In the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting, America, China, Korea, and Chinese Taipei expressed concern over India's decision to impose an import ban on laptops and computers. This concern was highlighted in the meeting of the Market Access Committee of WTO.

America has said that after the implementation of this decision, the trade of these products will be affected, including American exports to India. The US has also said that this decision is creating uncertainty for exporters and downstream users.

Let us tell you that on August 3, India banned several IT hardware products like laptops, personal computers (including tablet computers), microcomputers, large or mainframe computers, and some data processing machines with the aim of promoting domestic manufacturing and cutting imports. But banned imports from countries like China. This decision will come into effect from November 1.
