Mumbai, Sept. 27 -- US President Donald Trump's trade tariffs and sudden changes to the H-1B visa process are just friction points in India's growth trajectory, given the country's young population and strong consumption drivers, according to a senior JPMorgan executive.

Then came the surprise $100,000 fee on fresh work visas, with Indians slated to be impacted the most. The US policy changes have kept people and businesses on their toes.
