The poor run of the Indian trade continued for the 15th month in a row, with exports dipping 5.66 percent in February to $ 20738.60 million, against $21983.43 million in February 2015, due to contraction in shipments of petroleum and engineering goods amid tepid global demand. However, the trade deficit, fell to near five-year low of $ 6541.82 million during February 2016, as compared to $ 6741.95 million in February 2015, as imports too slowed down.

Besides a global slowdown, the severe fall in exports is attributed to a decline in global commodity prices. The government had earlier set a $300 billion export target for 2015-16, but there was talk of revising it downwards to $260 billion, even then as much as $22 billion worth of goods need to be exported in March to meet the truncated target.
