Leveraging the C.U.T.E. Framework: A Strategic Policy Response by Indian Manufacturers to Trump's 25% Secondary Tariff on India
2025-08-07
The reimposition of a 25% “secondary tariff” by former U.S. President Donald Trump on Indian imports—especially those seen as indirect substitutes for Chinese goods—poses a strategic challenge for India’s manufacturing and export sectors. This protectionist measure aims to secure American industries while discouraging China’s geopolitical supply chain leverage. However, it also penalizes emerging export economies like India.
This paper proposes a counter-strategy using the C.U.T.E. framework, which is derived from Porter’s Generic Strategies, to help Indian manufacturers navigate and respond to this trade shock. It offers Indian manufacturers and policy-makers a multidimensional lens to navigate these geopolitical trade disruptions. The framework bridges classical management strategy with real-world policy tools, focusing on Cost Advantage, Uniqueness, Target Market focus, and Strategic Edge.
