India's exports to China see massive jump in December
India's exports to China shot up by 67% in December 2025, reaching $2.04 billion. The boost came from things like electronics, shrimp, telecom gear, and metals.
Imports from China also grew—up 20% to $11.7 billion for the month.
Trade gap is still huge (but officials are upbeat)
Despite the export surge, India's trade deficit with China hit $81.7 billion between April and December 2025.
Exports overall were up nearly 37%, and imports rose too.
Commerce Secretary Rajesh Agrawal called the growth "It is a welcome growth," showing optimism about these numbers.
Why does this matter?
India and China traded about $110.19 billion between April and December 2025 (exports $14.24 billion + imports $95.95 billion), according to Commerce Ministry data—so what happens between them shapes a lot of what's on shelves (and screens) here.
For anyone interested in tech, jobs, or global trends, these shifts are worth keeping an eye on.
