The role of import tax in this situation is acting as a trade barrier.
Trade barrier refers to the imposition of tax on the import of goods from foreign countries. The Indian government has put barriers to foreign trade and foreign investment after independence.
The objectives were :
1. To protect the domestic producers from the following competition.
2. To provide opportunity to new industries to develop their position in the market.
3. To control the quantity of imports in the country.
