Indian ExportsEconomic and Political Weekly

By Geetima Das Krishna, Rajiv Kumar on August 22, 2015

A time series of exports indicates that average export growth has remained almost stagnant since January 2012 after a sharp bounce back in the first and second quarters of 2009. This article looks at the composition of India's export basket, export destinations and share in global exports to understand the reasons for the fall in export growth. It concludes that the evident inability to increase India's share in global markets points to the need for a thorough review of the working and performance of export promotion councils and related export agencies.
