Indian center-right / pro-business
Business Standard is an Indian business and financial newspaper owned primarily by interests tied to Uday Kotak of Kotak Mahindra Bank.

Its coverage of the Trump administration is largely analytical—reporting on how U.S. tariffs and trade policy affect India—rather than expressing a partisan stance on U.S. domestic politics.
