India’s electronics exports soared by 47 percent in the April–June quarter of FY26, reaching $12.41 billion, according to Commerce Ministry data. The United States remains the dominant buyer, accounting for over 60 percent of total electronics exports, followed by the UAE (8.09 percent) and China (3.88 percent). This export surge underscores India’s rising relevance in the global supply chain and its positioning as an efficient manufacturing hub within Asia.
Officials noted that the growth reflects not just scale, but an improving geographical footprint. The Netherlands (2.68 percent) and Germany (2.09 percent) also featured among the top destinations, showcasing India’s widening presence in high-value electronics markets.
Parallel to the electronics boom, India’s ready-made garments (RMG) sector posted a quarter-on-quarter rise to $4.19 billion, up from $3.85 billion in the same period last year. The United States again led the buyer list with a 34.11 percent share, reaffirming its role as a strategic consumer across multiple Indian export verticals. The UK (8.81 percent), UAE (7.85 percent), Germany (5.51 percent), and Spain (5.29 percent) rounded out the top five.
For the full year FY25, India’s RMG exports expanded by 10.03 percent, reaching $15.99 billion—an increase from $14.53 billion in FY24. Officials attributed this rise to enhanced delivery timelines, product diversity, and a skilled workforce able to meet global quality standards.
Marine exports also demonstrated robust growth, with seafood shipments rising 19.45 percent in Q1 FY26 to reach $1.95 billion. The United States emerged as the top importer here as well, with a 37.63 percent market share, followed by China (17.26 percent), Vietnam (6.63 percent), Japan (4.47 percent), and Belgium (3.57 percent). For the full fiscal year 2024–25, marine exports stood at $7.41 billion—a 4.5 percent uptick.
Officials credit the performance of all three sectors—electronics, textiles, and seafood—to strengthened logistics infrastructure, expanding global reach, and India’s rising reputation as a dependable supplier amid shifting geopolitical and supply chain dynamics.
