In 2025, India is set to surpass Japan as the world’s fourth-largest economy with a projected nominal GDP of US$ 4.33 trillion[1]. India’s export sector is booming, achieving US$ 437.1 billion in merchandise exports and US$ 341.1 billion in services exports in 2023-24. Key export sectors include Petroleum, Engineering Goods (such as iron and steel products, aluminum products, automotive parts, machinery, and industrial equipment), Gems and Precious Metals, Textiles, Agricultural Products, and Drugs and Pharmaceuticals.

In this article, we’ll guide you through the Indian market’s complexities by highlighting the top exporting states of India, their key districts, and the popular products they export. Let’s explore this together!

India’s diverse landscape is a whirlwind of cultures and traditions. From Gujarat’s vibrant textiles to Maharashtra’s glittering gems, each region brings unique strengths to the country’s export scene. This diversity is India’s greatest asset but also means buyers must delve deep to find the right suppliers.

India’s export landscape is not merely a collection of goods but is backed by strategic initiatives like promoting districts as export hubs and the One District One Product policy. The effectiveness of these strategies is underscored by the fact that the top 100 districts contribute a whopping 87% of total exports[2]. As India gears up to become a global export leader, buyers are encouraged to explore the diverse product offerings in each district, diving deep into regional variations and supplier profiles to find the perfect fit.
