India’s total exports touched a record $89.99 billion in October 2026, rising 29.9 per cent from October 2025, according to data released by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry on 13 November 2026.

It is the strongest monthly export performance India has recorded, with both goods and services growing sharply.

## Merchandise exports at a record high

Merchandise exports alone reached a record $49.47 billion in October, up 45.06 per cent from the same month last year. Electronics exports led the growth, rising 62.7 per cent year on year to $6.64 billion, from $4.08 billion in October 2025.

The rise shows India’s manufacturing supply chain is expanding, with electronic goods becoming a bigger part of what the country sells to the world.

## April to October total crosses $568 billion

For the first seven months of the financial year, April to October 2026, India’s combined exports of goods and services are estimated at $568.84 billion, up 16.66 per cent from $487.59 billion in the same period of 2025–26.

One note on the numbers: the October services figures are estimates, because the latest Reserve Bank of India services data used in the release was for September. The cumulative figures may be revised when final data comes in.

## Trade fair opens in Delhi

Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal, who released the export figures, also inaugurated the 45th India International Trade Fair at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi on 13 November. The fair runs from 14 to 27 November 2026 on the theme ‘Vikas aur Virasat’, and the minister said India is on track for a $1 trillion export target.
