This accomplishment marks a nearly 6% increase from the previous year's figure of $778 billion, highlighting the resilience and adaptability of Indian exporters amid global  challenges.

Key Highlights

Merchandise Exports: Between April and February of the 2024–25 fiscal year, merchandise exports totaled $395.63 billion, slightly surpassing the $395.38 billion achieved in the same period the previous year. 

Services Exports: Services exports saw a significant rise, reaching $354.90 billion during April–February 2024–25, up from $311.05 billion in the prior fiscal period.
