28% fall in Indian students headed to US in FY25 over visa, cost concerns
- businessline’s analysis reveals a significant decrease in Indian student enrollment in the US based on SEVIS data, dropping from 3,48,446 in July 2024 to 2,55,447 in August 2024.
- This decline is attributed to concerns over ad-hoc deportations, tighter visa regulations, and high tuition costs, along with the proposed 'Fairness for High-Skilled American Act 2025' targeting OPT.
- The bill aims to eliminate OPT, causing unease among F-1 and M-1 visa holders, and potentially impacting future OPT issues.
- Experts and students express varying sentiments, with some opting for countries like Germany over the US due to uncertain job prospects and a perceived hostile atmosphere.
- While some students with scholarships continue to pursue the American dream, many are reconsidering their higher education plans in the US due to visa uncertainties and evolving conditions.
- Current students in the US face challenges in finding jobs and navigating visa sponsorship costs, leading to cautious decisions and a reluctance to leave the US.
- The shift in Indian students' preferences towards countries like Germany and Ireland over the US is driven by rising visa uncertainty, high costs, and muted job prospects.
- Experts believe that with clearer post-study pathways, improved tech hiring, and better policy alignment, the US could regain its appeal for Indian STEM talent despite the current decline.
- Factors such as visa concerns, cost implications, and job uncertainties continue to influence Indian students' decisions regarding higher education options, leading to a shift away from the US.
- While some students still pursue the American dream, others are opting for alternative destinations like Germany, Australia, and France due to perceived advantages and opportunities.
- The current trend of declining interest in US education among Indian students may potentially reverse if the US government addresses concerns related to visas, costs, and job opportunities.

India’s Auto Exports To US Safe From Tariffs But Component Trade Faces Headwinds: VECV CEO
- India's auto exports to the US are expected to remain safe from tariffs, according to Vinod Aggarwal, CEO of Volvo Eicher Commercial Vehicles.
- The recent 25% tariffs imposed by US President Trump are unlikely to significantly affect India's automobile sector, but there may be challenges in the component trade.
- VECV, a joint venture between Volvo Group and Eicher Motors, has been operational since 2008, focusing on trucks and buses.
- India's overall impact might be cushioned as these tariffs are not only targeted at India but also affect imports from other countries like China, Canada, and Mexico.
- Aggarwal anticipates some impact on India's economy but believes it will not be significant due to strong domestic consumption.
- In fiscal 2026, Aggarwal is confident in the continued strength of the bus segment, citing growth in state transport undertakings and demand from schools and staffing sectors.
- He highlights a marginal growth in the commercial vehicle industry in FY25, with a drop in sales of heavy-duty trucks but a rise in demand for higher tonnage trucks.
- Despite a decrease in unit numbers, the actual freight movement may be higher, attributed to migration towards higher tonnage trucks.
- Aggarwal foresees growth in the bus segment driven by demand from schools, staffing, and state transport undertakings, indicating a positive outlook for fiscal 2026.
- Demand from various segments like schools, staffing, and intercity travel is expected to keep the bus segment strong according to Aggarwal.
