India's exports to China experienced a significant upturn, increasing by 20.0% year-on-year to reach USD 5.8 billion during the first four months of FY 2025-26 (April-July). This marks a marked recovery from the previous period, where there was a 4.5% decline in the same timeframe of FY 2024-25. In that earlier period, shipments totaled USD 4.8 billion. The surge in exports was largely fueled by heightened sales in the sectors of energy, electronics, and agriculture, according to official data cited by the Hindustan Times.

Analyzing the pattern in FY 2025-26, exports consistently ascended, with April witnessing a 12.9% increase year-on-year, May a notable 24% jump, and subsequent growth of 17% in June and 27% in July. These figures reflect the resilience of India's export market, notwithstanding the global trade fluctuations and seasonal demand shifts. By contrast, in FY 2024-25, Indian goods exported to China fell by 14.5%, at USD 14.25 billion down from USD 16.67 billion recorded in FY 2023-24.
