Govt sets an export target of $350 billion in FY’13

18 May 2012 Evaluate

The government has set an export target of $350 billion for the next fiscal year and is optimistic of attaining the target inspite of gloomy economic condition. Minister of State for Commerce and Industry Jyotiraditya Scindia said a better review of the shipments would be made by the government after the first half of the current financial year.

Further, to improve the exporters’ condition in the midst of depreciating rupee and slowing global economic growth, it is likely that in the upcoming foreign trade policy (FTP) on June 5, to boost exports, incentives would be announced. 

India’s exports in the last fiscal stood at $303.7 billion, surpassing the target set at $300 billion. This happened despite the slackening of demand from its majors export destination of Europe and USA.  On the other hand, with the increase in prices of global crude oil, India’s import bill has also been increasing leading to a record trade deficit of $184.9 billion.

Hence, Commerce and Industry Minister, Anand Sharma has hinted at the possibility of announcing measures to boost exports in the upcoming FTP. The last FTP which was announced in October 2011 had provided export incentives worth Rs 1,700 crore.

It is noteworthy that India’s merchandise exports grew by 82% in July 2011 but came down to 44.25% in August, 36.36% in September, 10.8% in October and 3.8% in November 2011. In April 2012, the growth had dipped to 3.2%. The sectors that saw major contractions were gems and jewellery and readymade garments which contracted by 25.7% and 9.7% respectively.
