India's trade deficit with China in April-May stood at $8 billion

10 Aug 2015 Evaluate

In the first two month of current financial year, India’s trade deficit with China touched $8 billion. Rising trade deficit with China on account of increasing Chinese exports to India rely strongly on manufactured items meeting the demand of fast expanding sectors like telecom and power, while India's exports to China are characterized by primary products, raw material and intermediate.

In an attempt to increase exports and to maintain balance of trade with country's trade partners including China, the government has taken a number of measures including market study initiatives to identify specific products having export potential. It is also actively taking up issues related to trade and non-trade measures with its trading partners.

In the last fiscal, trade deficit between India and China increased about 34% to 48.47 billion as compared to $36.2 billion in the financial year 2014. According to provisional figures, in the financial year 2015, India's exports to China stood at $11.95 billion, while imports were $60.39 billion. Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has said that India has entered into 11 free trade agreements and five preferential trade agreements with other countries. She further added 'India is negotiating FTAs and PTAs with some countries, including Israel and the EU (European Union).'

According to the Commerce Ministry data, India’s total trade deficit for April-March, 2014-15 was estimated at $ 137.014 billion which was higher than the deficit of $ 135.79 billion during April-March, 2013-14.
