U.S. Emerges as the Largest MarketโGlobal Value Chains Are Anchoring in IndiaโIndia Poised to Cross $35 Billion in Exports
Typically, August and September are low-export months for the mobile industry due to seasonal adjustments in production and shipment cycles. However, the sustained momentum this year underscores the maturity and resilience of Indiaโs mobile manufacturing ecosystem, which continues to expand its footprint in international markets.
U.S. Emerges as the Largest Market
During the first half of FY 2025โ26 (AprilโSeptember 2025), Indiaโs total mobile phone exports are estimated at $13.5 billion, up from $8.5 billion during the same period in 2024 โ a growth of over 60%.
The United States emerged as the dominant destination, accounting for nearly 70% of total exports, up from 37% last year.
Exports to the U.S. rose sharply from $3.1 billion (AprilโSeptember 2024) to an estimated $9.4 billion (AprilโSeptember 2025) โ an increase of almost 200%. Other key export destinations included the UAE, Austria, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
โGlobal Value Chains Are Anchoring in Indiaโ
Commenting on the strong performance, Pankaj Mohindroo, Chairman of ICEA, said:
โThe sustained rise in exports reflects the solid foundation of Indiaโs mobile manufacturing ecosystem. Global value chains are now deeply anchoring here. The surge in exports to advanced economies signals growing global trust in Indiaโs ability to deliver quality, scale, and reliability.โ
India Poised to Cross $35 Billion in Exports
ICEA projects that mobile phone exports could reach $35 billion in FY 2025โ26, up from $24.1 billion in FY 2024โ25. The trend firmly establishes India among the worldโs leading smartphone manufacturing and export hubs.
Mohindroo further noted:
โIndiaโs mobile phone industry is firing on all cylinders. The next phase of growth will depend on our ability to sustain the scale and competitiveness achieved so far. The focus now must shift toward deepening the component and sub-assembly ecosystem within the country to make exports sustainable in the long term.โ
Indiaโs performance in smartphone exports reflects not just robust trade numbers but also a strategic transformation in the nationโs industrial identity โ signaling a shift from โMake in Indiaโ to โShip from India.โ
Indiaโs smartphone exports surge 95% in September 2025, with the U.S. accounting for 70% of shipments, reflecting India's growing global dominance.
