India's Exports Rise by 15%
- Despite the prevailing global economic uncertainty, the country's merchandise exports recorded a growth of approximately 15 percent during the April-May period of the 2026-27 fiscal year.
- Driven by a rise in petroleum product exports fueled by higher crude oil prices exports in April increased by 13.78 percent to reach US$ 43.56 billion.
- This marks the highest monthly export figure recorded in over four years. However, due to a rise in imports, the trade deficit widened to US$ 28.38 billion, hitting a three-month high.
