What was the value of India's total exports during April-October of FY 2026-27?
- A.US$ 487.59 billion
- B.US$ 568.84 billion
- C.US$ 479.0 billion
- D.US$ 863.1 billion
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is US$ 568.84 billion. India's combined goods and services exports for the seven months from April to October of FY 2026-27 were placed at that level, which works out to growth of 16.66% year on year. Option A, US$ 487.59 billion, is the figure for the very same seven months of the previous financial year, so it is the base against which the 16.66% rise is measured rather than the current total. Option C, US$ 479.0 billion, covers only the April-September half year, one month short of the period asked about, and was described as a record for that half. Option D, US$ 863.1 billion, is the full-year total for FY 2025-26, which completed five consecutive years of record exports; a seven-month figure cannot match a twelve-month one. Reading the period carefully is what separates the four options here.
