Mumbai, July 21, 2025 — India’s electronics exports surged by an impressive 47% in the April–June quarter of FY26, reaching USD 12.41 billion, according to Commerce Ministry data. This sharp rise underscores India’s growing presence in high-tech global supply chains, driven by strategic policy support and widening global demand.

Electronics Exports: Momentum from the US and Strategic Markets

The United States continues to be India's most dominant electronics trade partner, accounting for 60.17% of total exports in this sector. It was followed by the United Arab Emirates (8.09%), China (3.88%), the Netherlands (2.68%), and Germany (2.09%).

"This geographical spread highlights India’s deepening integration into the global electronics supply chain," said Rajeev Kapoor, Additional Secretary, Department of Commerce.

India’s electronics manufacturing push—supported by the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and sector-specific policy reforms—has not only enhanced production volume but also increased value-added exports. The sector is now contributing significantly to India's USD 40 billion electronics export milestone achieved recently.

Apparel Sector: Ready-Made Garments (RMG) Sustain Global Competitiveness

India's RMG exports rose to USD 4.19 billion, up from USD 3.85 billion in the same quarter last year. The United States again led as the primary destination, accounting for 34.11% of shipments, followed by the UK (8.81%), UAE (7.85%), Germany (5.51%), and Spain (5.29%).

The RMG sector grew 10.03% year-on-year in FY25, clocking USD 15.99 billion in exports, reaffirming its role as a key pillar of India's textile economy.

Marine Exports: Strong Global Demand and Logistics Boost

India’s marine exports recorded a 19.45% increase, totaling USD 1.95 billion in Q1 FY26. The United States retained the top spot, importing 37.63% of India's seafood exports. Other leading markets included China (17.26%), Vietnam (6.63%), Japan (4.47%), and Belgium (3.57%).

The growth has been attributed to diversification in product offerings, advancements in cold chain logistics, and consistent compliance with international quality norms.

The US: India’s Strongest Export Ally Across Key Sectors

Across electronics, textiles, and marine segments, the United States consistently emerges as the single largest trade partner, reflecting the deep commercial alignment between the two economies.

With strong government backing and rising global trust in Indian manufacturing, India’s export momentum shows clear signs of resilience and strategic depth. As supply chains diversify globally, India is well-positioned to lead as a credible, scalable trade partner for both developed and emerging economies.
