India's Engineering Exports Rise 21% in June Led by US, China, and Oman Demand
India's engineering exports rose 21% year-on-year to $11.48 billion in June 2026, driven by strong demand from the US, China, Germany, and Oman. Shipments to Oman surged over fivefold, while exports to China increased 74%. The sector accounted for 28.4% of India's total merchandise exports in June and grew 18.09% in the April-June quarter. Despite shipping disruptions in the Red Sea and Strait of Hormuz, engineering exports provided resilience to India's broader trade performance, with growth noted across most regions except some Middle Eastern countries.
