The Minister of State for Commerce and Industry Jitin Prasada has stated that India's exports from Special Economic Zones (SEZs) grew 11.8 per cent year-on-year to Rs 16,36,192 crore ($185.28 billion) in 2025-26, up from Rs 14,63,669 crore ($173.07 billion) in the previous fiscal. The minister said the government has been undertaking measures to improve SEZ utilisation, attract fresh investments and integrate these export hubs more closely with domestic supply chains to enhance their operational efficiency.
The minister said SEZ exports have registered consistent growth over the past five years, increasing from Rs 9,90,747 crore in 2021-22 to Rs 12.63 lakh crore in 2022-23, Rs 13.55 lakh crore in 2023-24, Rs 14.64 lakh crore in 2024-25, and Rs 16.36 lakh crore in 2025-26. Among states, Gujarat emerged as the top exporter from SEZs in FY26 with exports worth Rs 4,05,595 crore, followed by Karnataka (Rs 2,69,004 crore), Maharashtra (Rs 2,43,422.5 crore) and Tamil Nadu (Rs 2,12,288 crore).
He stated that India's pharmaceutical exports increased from $15.43 billion in 2014-15 to $31.12 billion in 2025-26, a compound annual growth rate of about 6.6 per cent. Pharmaceutical exports stood at $30.27 billion in 2024-25. Maharashtra, one of India's leading pharmaceutical exporting states, accounted for about 19% of the country's pharma exports. The exports from the state rose from $4.48 billion in 2021-22 to $5.94 billion in 2025-26, with Pune, Mumbai, Thane, Nashik, Palghar, Raigad and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad) among the key exporting districts.
Talking about free trade agreements (FTAs), he said such pacts can help India gain preferential market access, reduce tariff barriers and enhance export competitiveness as countries and businesses seek reliable and diversified trade partners. He noted that India has finalised trade agreements with the UAE, Australia, the United Kingdom, Oman, New Zealand, and the EFTA bloc.
