The year 2025 marked a decisive turning point in global trade. Slower growth in major economies, sudden tariff escalations and growing concentration of critical supply chains made international commerce more fragmented and unpredictable.
Yet, amid this turbulence, India demonstrated notable resilience and began a deliberate recalibration of its global economic integration.
India’s total exports in FY 2024–25 reached $824.9 billion, registering a 6% year-on-year increase despite muted global demand. This performance did not reflect insulation from global headwinds, but a conscious strategic shift combining market diversification, supply-chain repositioning and institutional reform.
