India’s Exports to USA increased from 2024 to 2025 by 5% after tariff imposition

India’s export performance gained remarkable momentum through 2025, driven by an active Free Trade Agreement (FTA) strategy, trade diversification, expansion into new markets, and strengthened India–US economic engagement. According to official trade estimates, India’s total exports expanded steadily on a month-on-month basis, underscoring the resilience and adaptability of Indian exporters amid global headwinds.

India’s total export value jumped from US$ 64.05 billion in Nov 2024 to US$ 73.99 billion in Nov 2025, marking a 15.5 % year-on-year increase.

Drivers of Export Growth

India’s trade diplomacy — including active negotiations and implementation of FTAs — has expanded market access for Indian goods and services. More preferential certificates of origin (CoO) were issued in 2024–25 than in the prior year, facilitating duty concessions for exporters under partner FTAs.

Market Diversification

Beyond the United States, India’s exports to Asian and European markets climbed in 2025, with destinations such as the UAE, China and EU member states absorbing more shipments of electronic goods, pharmaceuticals, engineering products, and marine products.

Electronics & Engineering cargo has the major share for merchandise exports volume.

India’s export momentum in 2025 highlights structural resilience and diplomatic diversification. Strong year-on-year export gains, month-on-month recovery in key markets, and the strategic leverage of FTAs signal that India is well positioned for robust export growth in 2026.
