According to data from the state-sponsored Engineering Export Promotion Council of India, the U.S. ranks as India’s number one destination for engineering products with shipments aggregating $2.9 billion between April and July of the current fiscal.
UAE, with shipments of $1.78 billion occupies the second slot among the top 25 destinations for the engineering exports, while Mexico is at third position with $921 million worth of engineering goods purchased from India. Other major destinations for the engineering products include U.K., Germany, Italy, China, Singapore and Bangladesh, reports the Economic Times.
Engineering Export Promotion Council of India’s chairman Tarvinder Singh Bhasin said, “There is no doubt the U.S. economy is doing well resulting in better shipments of our engineering goods, showing a cumulative growth of 37 percent between April-July 2017. But for an unabated rise in rupee value, our performance would have been even better.”
