Indian Exports- The imposition of heavy tariffs on Indian products by America does not seem to have any impact on Indian exports. India has not only compensated for the loss from America by exporting more goods to China, UAE and Spain but has also increased its total exports in November 2025.
New Delhi. India has overcome the US tariff hurdle by diversifying its export markets. This is the reason why Indian exports can increase by about 15% to 36 billion dollars in November 2025. In November last year, India had exported 32 billion dollars. This information has been given in a report of Hindustan Times. According to the report, along with the increase in India’s merchandise exports in November, there was also a significant decline in imports, which reduced the trade deficit. Two people with knowledge of the matter, on condition of anonymity, said that these are initial estimates and the final data has not come yet. India’s goods exports to the US fell 12% year-on-year to $5.47 billion in September due to the heavy 50% tariff imposed by the US on Indian goods from August 2025. In October it decreased by 8.6% and stood at $6.31 billion. America is India’s biggest market in terms of exports.
India has compensated for the loss from America by increasing exports to markets like China, Spain, Europe, United Arab Emirates and Russia. According to government data, India’s exports to China have been increasing with double-digit growth every month since April. In September and October it recorded a jump of 33% and 42% respectively. After Spain, China has emerged as India’s fastest growing major export market in September and October. In just these two months, America had imposed huge tariffs on India.
China becomes an important buyer
China has emerged as an important buyer of Indian goods. India’s exports to China increased by 42.35 percent to $1.63 billion in October from $1.14 billion in the same month of 2024. Exports to Spain also witnessed an annual increase of 43.43% in October and reached $549.26 million. Similarly, India’s exports to China increased by 33 percent to $1.46 billion in September. Exports to Spain increased by 151 percent year-on-year to $988 million in September.
Increased export of these products
There has been a significant increase in India’s exports of electronics and marine products. India’s electronic goods exports increased by 37.9% to $26.29 billion in the first seven months of 2025-26, from $19.07 billion in the same period last year. Exports of seafood products increased by 11.66% to $4.69 billion, whereas it was $4.20 billion in April-October of 2024-25. Sea food products have been most affected by American tariffs. Sea food exporters have reduced the losses from America by exporting more goods to the European Union, Vietnam, China and Russia. India’s seafood exports to the US have declined by 5% during April-October 2025. Shipment of marine products to Vietnam has increased by 103.5%.
