Share of exports in GDP to increase to 40% by 2025: Suresh Prabhu

20 Feb 2018 Evaluate

With an aim to provide fillip to exports and make global trade the foundation of Indian economy, the commerce minister Suresh Prabhu has said that the government will soon come out with a comprehensive strategy to increase the share of exports to 40% of the gross domestic product (GDP) and is expected to touch $5 trillion by 2025. According to the Federation of Indian Export Organisation (FIEO), the current share of exports in GDP is only 18-19%.

Elaborating further, Prabhu said that out of the $5 trillion, as much as $3 trillion will come from the services sector, while $1 trillion each will come from the manufacturing and agriculture sectors. He added that the more than doubling of shipments will demand that the economy massively increase the share of manufacturing in the overall GDP basket, which is around 14%. He also urged the business community to come up with a proper business plan to increase exports.

In order to ensure export to new markets and ship out new products, the commerce minister said that they are in the process of preparing a new strategy for diversifying their export basket. In this regard, they are preparing a marketing strategy and the focus would be on attracting foreign investment and engaging the global community. At present, the size of India’s GDP is $2.6 trillion, which is the fifth largest in the world after the US, China, Japan, Germany and Britain, while its share in global trade is paltry and is under 2% only.
