India goods trade deficit eases to $30 bn, goods exports jump 23%, services log rare dip
India's goods trade deficit narrowed to $30 billion in September as merchandise exports surged 23% to $44.40 billion, driven by a 48% increase in exports to the US. Imports grew 8% to $74.61 billion, slower than the previous year's pace, contributing to the reduced deficit. The trend may impact future trade policies as concerns over tariffs loom.
