Introduction
Merchandise foreign trade data are compiled on the basis of flows/movements of goods across the
custom frontiers of India by DGCI&S. The value of import is based on CIF, i.e. Cost, Insurance and
Freight whereas the value of export is on FOB (Free on Board). The foreign trade statistics are released
in three phases:
(i) Monthly Quick Estimates are released by fifteenth of the following month,
(iii) Detailed 8-digit commodity level data are released within 60 days.
All these data are provisional and are dynamically revised till it is finalised on the basis of late receipt of
data. This Report contains analysis of these three categories of latest available data.
FETERS are used as input in compilation of balance of payments (BoP) for India and released by
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) within 45 days. The foreign trade in Services data are compiled from these
monthly RBI releases.
The Quick Estimates of Merchandise Foreign Trade are grouped into 30 major commodities.
In April 2019, India’s merchandise export was US$ 26,073.47million as compared to US$
25,908.37million in April 2018, registering a positive growth of 0.64%. In April 2019, India’s
merchandise import was US$ 41,400.50million as compared to US$ 39,627.11million in April 2018,
registering a positive growth of 4.48%. As a result, trade deficit during April 2019 has increased as
