India's engineering exports sector is facing fierce competition from China as both countries look to expand into overlapping markets.
The United States' tariff regime is not showing signs of easing, which could result in losses of $4-5 billion for Indian engineering exporters.
China is also targeting new markets such as Latin America, Central America, West Africa, and North Africa, posing intense competition for India.
The Engineering Export Promotion Council (EEPC) has cautioned exporters against falling for tariff evasion tactics and emphasized the need for de-risking and finding fresh markets.
