In short

EEPC Chairman Pankaj Chadha said on Monday that India’s engineering exports may reach $150 billion this fiscal year. He said last fiscal year they were $122 billion, and that shipments are growing in markets like the US.

This matters to exporters in engineering, iron and steel, and machinery. The report does not say whether the April-September numbers already point to that target being met.

Why it matters

EEPC Chairman Pankaj Chadha said on Monday that India’s engineering exports are expected to reach USD 150 billion this fiscal year, versus USD 122 billion last fiscal year. He said the US market and sectors such as iron and steel and machinery are helping shipments. The source does not provide the partial-year export figure, so the forecast remains an industry estimate rather than a confirmed outcome.
