19 Dec 2016 Evaluate

Encouraged by the signs of a positive growth recorded by the exports in the last three months, the Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has expressed hope that exports will see a positive and solid difference in 2017. Though, the exports had shown a lacklustre trend for almost past two years. Sitharaman said that "I look at the new year which is going to definitely see positive and solid difference in exports compared to the previous years when we have been really very slow.” She also expects that newer market should emerge.

The minister said that India should reach 3.5% of the total global trade by 2020 from its current share of 2% and added that the increase in trade needs to be achieved by exporters, various segments who have strength, units who aspire to be a part of the global value chain. She said that exports, which contribute 7.5% of our Gross Domestic Product, need to be pushed further.

As per the commerce ministry's data, since December 2014, exports fell for 18 straight months till May 2016 due to subdued global demand and slide in oil prices. Shipments started witnessing growth only in June this year, but again entered the negative zone in July and August. However, in September, October and November, it registered growth. The latest data showed that in November exports grew 2.29 percent to $20 billion. According to the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO), out of the 30 key product groups, close to 20 are exhibiting positive trends in the past couple of months.
