US Midterm Elections 2026 could have major implications for India and the global economy. If Donald Trump and the Republicans lose ground in Congress, could India get better terms in its trade deal with the US? What could change for tariffs, H-1B visas, the Indian IT sector and bilateral relations? In this exclusive conversation with GoodReturns, Senior Economist Professor Arun Kumar explains how the US elections could impact India's economy, exports, jobs, foreign investment, the rupee, stock markets and global trade. He also discusses the impact of the Iran war, Russia-Ukraine conflict, energy supply disruptions and Trump's trade policies. Will a weaker Trump administration create new opportunities for India? Watch the full discussion to understand what these elections could mean for India's economic and strategic interests.

अमेरिका के Midterm Elections 2026 पर पूरी दुनिया की नजरें हैं, लेकिन भारत के लिए ये चुनाव इतने अहम क्यों हैं? अगर डोनाल्ड ट्रंप की रिपब्लिकन पार्टी कमजोर पड़ती है और डेमोक्रेट्स को कांग्रेस में बढ़त मिलती है, तो भारत-अमेरिका Trade Deal, Tariffs, H-1B Visa और Indian IT Sector पर क्या असर हो सकता है? GoodReturns के इस खास इंटरव्यू में Senior Economist Professor Arun Kumar से समझिए कि अमेरिकी चुनाव भारत की Economy, Rupee, Dollar, Stock Market, Jobs और Foreign Investment को कैसे प्रभावित कर सकते हैं। क्या भारत को अमेरिका के साथ बेहतर Trade Deal मिल सकती है?

03:50strategic effect. In the same way, they're going to be used to
03:56so they're going to be used to. So, this is how we can't really
04:03get into it. So, it's possible that they would less the way. So,
04:06it's possible that if they go to Ukraine and Russia, the
04:11government of Ukraine, the supply bottleneck, the government of
04:15Russia is going to go in Europe, and the government of Russia
04:32I don't know.
04:49so that is a very big impact. So I think it will be a big impact on supply bottlenecks
04:55and our trade, the multilateral trade, we will go back again. And one big challenge
05:03is the artificial intelligence. In America, the other countries can be disappointed in
05:11Venezuela. In the evening, they have been attacked by the big leaves and the light
05:16दम आफ हो गई वेनेजुला में उन्होंने रेडार्स पे कबजा कर लिया जिससे कि वहां पे
05:21जो 140 जो अमरीका के हवाई जहाज थे वो दिखाई नहीं पड़े तो यह जो
05:25चैलेंज है वो डिफेंस सेक्टर में भी है और अगर यह आर्ट्शन
05:30intelligence है उसमें अगर एक जह सही डंग से समझाता हो जाता है सारे
05:35देशों के बीच में तो यह जो अभी जह existential threat जो कहा जा रहा है वो जह
05:40existential threat को control करने में भी जादे मदद मिलेगी चुकि जह प्रेजडेंट
05:52तो अगर अमरीका जह बहुत ज्यादे में आगे बढ़ गया तो बाकी देशों को परेशान कर देगा तो अगर एक
05:59और मतलब ट्रॉम्प अगर मॉडरेट हो जाएंगे यह सारे इलेक्शन के बाद कॉंग्रिस में हारने के बाद सेनेट में अगर
06:06उनकी
06:06मेजॉर्टी खता हो जाती है तो उसका सारे दुनिया पर असर पड़ेगा स्ट्रेटीजिकली जी स्ट्राटीजिकली असर तो पढ़ने वाला है
06:15और हर एक फेज हमने आप से समझ लिया कि कौन-कौन से पॉइंट जैसे हैं जहां पर असर पढ़ने
06:20वाला है ना सिर्फ भारत
06:21पर ग्लोबली भी असर पड़ेगा इस mid-term election का लेकिन एक और पॉइंट यहां पर उठता है कि Trump
06:28हारेंगे या जीतेंगे
06:29Sir Democrats के जीतने की probability कैसे देख रहे हैं Economist
06:33देखिए ऐसा है कि वहां पर दाम बहुत तेज हो गया है है ना वहां पर जो जो cost of
06:39living बढ़ गया है
06:40और जो डीजल है उसके दाम तो बहुत ही तेज हो गया था तो सारे ट्रांसपोर्ट वगरा सब कुछ disturb
06:46हो गया
06:46तो ये मतलब लोग समझ रहे हैं कि ये इरान यूद की वज़े से हुआ
06:51तो जाज़त तर लोग वहां पर इसके खिलाफ हैं
06:54स्टेट ओफ होडमूस बंद होने के इरान का यूद होने के वज़े से
06:58और वहां पर जो inflation है वो एक बड़ी वज़े थी क्यों Trump जीते
07:03बाइडन के समय भी ये कहा गया था कि ये दाम तेज हैं
07:05और Trump ने प्रॉमिस किया था कि दामों को हम कम कर देंगे
07:08पर दाम तो और बढ़ गए है तो वहां बढ़ने से जो आम नागरिक है
07:13उसके उपर पर परिशानी तो बढ़ी गई है तो इसलिए जो
07:16पोल्स आए हैं पोल्स दिखा रहे हैं कि Trump की रेटिंग बहुत गिर गई है
07:20Trump की रेटिंग जो गिरी है उससे फिर यह हुआ कि जहां पर जो
07:25swing states हैं जिनको बोला जाता है जहां पर कि थोड़ा सा वोट पर परिवर्तन होता है
07:29तो वो फिर जह एक या दूसरी की तरफ चल जाते हैं यह swing states में जो swing हुआ है
07:35वो Democrats की तरफ हुआ है क्योंकि लोग जहें Trump की नीतियों से परिशान है
07:39inflation से युद से और Trump ने तो आते समय कहा था कि मैं तो 24 घंटे में
07:44Ukraine और रूस के युद खतम कर दूँगा
07:47तो ने कहा था कि मैं कोई नया युद निश्रू करूंगा और Biden को बहुत कोसा था कि भई हर
07:53जगे युद हो रहा है
07:54मैं तो सारे युद बंद कर दूँगा यहां तक कि उन्होंने कहा मैं तो Nobel Prize भी मिल जाएगा
07:58क्योंकि मैंने तो आठ युद बंद करा दिये हैं लेकिन इतना बड़ा युद तो चल रहा है
08:02Ukraine में और जो इरान का जो पर्शी मेशिया में चल रहा है
08:06तो इसलिए जो आम जनता है उसको लगता है कि जो प्रॉमिस किया था जब ट्रॉम्प ने
08:11वो प्रॉमिस नहीं फुल्फिल किया है और अगर प्रॉमिस नहीं फुल्फिल किया है
08:15तो इसलिए ट्रॉम्प को तरफ वोट करने की जो कोई ज़रूत नहीं है
08:18उनको लगता है कि डेमोक्राट्स आएंगे तो यह जै ट्रॉम्प की जो ताकत है
08:22which is an arbitrary action,
08:24that is a power of power.
08:26So, I think that this time,
08:28all the polls are going to be,
08:29what we can do here is what we can do.
08:32Polls, which we can do,
08:33we can say that this is what we can do.
08:35And what we can do in the world,
08:36it feels like that America has increased problems.
08:39If America has increased problems,
08:41then Trump has increased problems.
08:45He has created problems,
08:48where there is problems.
08:50He has created problems.
08:51So, this is why the Democrats will do better,
08:54and the Democrats will do better,
08:57and the Senate will do better,
08:58and the Senate will also do better.
09:01So, how much better it will be,
09:03we will not be able to tell you.
09:05Some races are very close,
09:08but in Congress,
09:09it feels like that there will be a majority of them.
09:13Okay.
09:14Sir, if Democrats win,
09:17let's take a look at the probability.
09:19Trump's India-focused policy,
09:21will there be any effect on the India-focused policy?
09:24Look, when the strategy changes in the world,
09:28when Trump will be lower,
09:30then he will also be lower,
09:30then he will also be lower,
09:33then he will also be lower,
09:35then he will also be lower.
09:53So, if the Americans are higher,
09:54and he will have the majority of people,
09:55you will have to lower their voices,
09:57you can come to the other and turn it down.
10:01So, the Tribal Preeks has a majority of people.
10:03That's all that the Azharad,
10:03that the delivery of the country
10:04is now getting into control.
10:05that they will take a look at the vehicle,
10:07the US government.
10:07So, the government will also be lower.
10:08κα ζور پڑے گا, Iran की طرف بھی अगर कमज़ोर پڑا.
10:11ये बहुत साइट चीज़ें जिससे strategic असर पड़ेगा.
10:14अमरीका का क्या direct असर होगा वह तो एक है.
10:17लेकिन दुनिया में जब trade और जो supply bottlenecks जै
10:19मतलब खतम होंगे, trade better होगा, तो उसका भी हमारे
10:23uh...deesh pere aachha aasar padega haemara joh inflation tez ho raha hai wholesale price index
10:28abhi das persen se oopar chala gya tha retail inflation bharata chala jara hai
10:32woh 5 persen ke taraf bhe ja raha hai. Toh garib aadmi ke oopar uska bhot bara aasar
10:36pade ta hai. Toh agar ye saare cizai dunia mein resolve hooti hai.
10:40Chyokhi trump kamzor pade jate hai. Woha itna jaja jaja jaja dabaab nahi ndar payenge.
10:44Halakki loog keha raya ki woh executive power ka ishtmahal kareenge.

12:30Jokhi itna asan nahi hota hai.
12:32Toh woha pe bhi parišanhi.
12:33Lekin yoh artificial intelligence ke aane se.
12:36Bohut sara software development artificial intelligence ke through ho raha hai.
12:39Coding vagira ho raha hai.
12:40Aur aapne dekha jasai ki abhi microsoft nai saadh zaar loong ko nikalne ki baat ki.
