India's exports likely to touch record $400 billion this fiscal: Piyush Goyal.
Dec 15, 2021

Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Tuesday said India's merchandise export is set to touch an all-time high of $400 billion during the current financial year, driven by sharp uptick in shipments. As per a preliminary trade data, India's merchandise exports in April-November 2021 was at $262.46 billion, an increase of 50.71 per cent over $174.15 billion in the same period of the previous financial year.
 
'Our exports have consistently crossed $30 billion for the last eight months. We are now at about $262 billion of exports versus $290 billion in the 12 months of last year. So, by the ninth month, we would have crossed last year's export, and we hope to do a record export of $400 billion,' Goyal said.
 
Speaking at the CII Partnership Summit 2021, he said India's imports too are growing and thus providing opportunities to other countries to expand business and international trade with India.
