India has opted against imposing restrictions on laptop imports, a reversal from its initial plan announced in August. Trade Secretary Sunil Barthwal explained that the Centre simply wants to monitor importers more closely. The original import licensing regime was designed to ensure only "trusted hardware and systems" entered India but faced a three-month delay due to industry objections and criticism from Washington.
