India’s exports are expected to reach US$ 450 billion by the end of the current financial year (FY2023-24) despite geopolitical challenges like the Red Sea crisis. Ashwini Kumar, elected president of FIEO, the apex organization of exporters, said this on Tuesday. According to Bhasha news, he said that the challenges arising from the Red Sea crisis can be resolved by rational increase in marine insurance and freight charges. Kumar said that to boost the country’s exports, the export sector needs easy and low-cost credit and marketing support.
Free trade agreements will help
According to the news, soon finalization of free trade agreements with Britain and Oman will also help exports. Kumar said that I will focus on addressing the issues of MSMEs as they are going to play a major role. These units will play an important role in achieving the target of merchandise exports of $ 1,000 billion by the year 2030. He said that small and medium units are the backbone of the economy and they are facing some loan related issues.
