India’s electronics exports witnessed a robust 47% year-on-year growth during the April–June quarter of FY26, reaching $12.41 billion, according to data released by the Commerce Ministry.
US Tops List of Export Destinations
The United States emerged as the leading destination for Indian electronic goods, accounting for a significant 60.17% of the total exports.
The United Arab Emirates followed with an 8.09% share, while China held a 3.88% share. Other key markets included the Netherlands (2.68%) and Germany (2.09%).
Officials attributed this wide geographical spread to India’s growing importance in the global electronics supply chain and its rise as a competitive and reliable manufacturing hub in Asia.
RMG Exports to the US Dominant Market Share

During Q1 FY26, the sector generated $4.19 billion, compared to $3.85 billion in the same quarter last year.
