Export figures for FY04, FY14, and FY24 show interesting trends
Business Standard|April 29, 2024
The Commerce Ministry has released the quick estimates of exports and imports figures for March 2024.

The figures for the full year 2023-24 are now available, and that enables an assessment of the export figures for 2003-04, 2013-14, and 2023-24.

The total merchandise exports figures went up from $63.84 billion in 2003-04 to $314.40 billion in 2013-14 (a rise of $250.62 billion), and now stand at $437.06 billion (a rise of $122.65 billion). So, while the merchandise exports grew almost four-fold during 2004-14, they grew by a little over a third during 2014-24. The services exports, however, grew from $46 billion in 2003-04 to $167 billion in 2013-14 (a rise of $123 billion) and to $340 billion in 2023-24 (a rise of $173 billion from 2013-14). Thus the rise in exports of services is more than the rise in the exports of merchandise in the past ten years.
