Market Chatter: Trump Administration Pressures India to Give Amazon, Walmart Full Access

MT Newswires Live

Apr 22, 2025

Amazon.com (AMZN) and Walmart (WMT) could benefit from full access to India's e-commerce market if the Trump administration is able to reach a trade agreement with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Financial Times reported Tuesday, citing industry executives, lobbyists, and US officials.

The report said that the US plans to push for a level playing field on e-commerce as part of wider talks with India. The Asian country currently allows US e-commerce companies to operate in India solely as online marketplaces for third-party sellers, according to the report.

India faces a 26% tariff on exports to the US if an agreement is not reached within a 90-day pause that President Trump has enacted.

Amazon and Walmart did not immediately reply to MT Newswires' request for comment.
