Piyush Goyal asks industry to boost manufacturing to reduce imports

Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Monday asked the industry to identify goods that can be manufactured in India to help reduce import dependence of those products. He also suggested increasing exports and buy goods manufactured in India, rather than importing them. Addressing domestic traders, he said, "You should keep an eye on what goods are being imported, you will see opportunities in that too, what things can be manufactured in India." Goyal urged stakeholders to study import trends through the commerce ministry's trade portal and identify opportunities for domestic manufacturing and import substitution. The minister said despite global economic uncertainties, triggered by Russia-Ukraine and West Asia crisis, India's exports rose about 5 per cent to USD 863.11 billion in 2025-26. "This year's target is USD 1 trillion. This is a big target. We have to work together for this," Goyal said, adding that the industry should focus on quality, improving competitiveness a
