Goyal urges exporters to make greater use of India-US trade portal to boost trade
Apr-09-2026

In order to enhance bilateral trade, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal has urged exporters and businesses in both India and the US to make greater use of the India-US trade facilitation portal. Moreover, Goyal said the bilateral trade is growing towards $500 billion, an ambitious target set by both sides.

He stated ‘I urge all members of industry bodies, export promotion councils, and chambers from across India and the US to connect, make this portal part of your business and help turn it into a powerful engine for India-US trade.’ 

According to him, the portal acts as a ‘runway’ to the USA for domestic services exporters, and it will also provide opportunities across businesses, from a farmer in Punjab to a jeweller in Surat and a software expert in Bengaluru to pharma firms in Telangana. Besides, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri launched the India-US trade facilitation portal on April 08, 2026. Misri stated ‘It will serve as a bridge ensuring continuity and ensuring that existing supply chains are reinforced, and at the same time will enable new commercial linkages to emerge and grow.’
