India’s engineering exports crossing US$70 billion in the first half of FY 2026–27, with nearly 20% growth, reflects the resilience of the sector amid global uncertainties. The focus now must be on sustaining this growth, expanding market access through effective utilisation of FTAs and strengthening the availability of quality raw materials at competitive prices.
Achieving higher export ambitions will require close industry–government collaboration, resilient supply chains and greater global competitiveness. A clear strategy towards US$250 billion in engineering exports by 2030 can help strengthen India’s manufacturing ecosystem and expand its role in global trade.
