Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Monday said the country is on track to achieve the $650-billion export target set for goods and services in the ongoing fiscal year (FY22). 

The $400-billion merchandise exports target is within sight and the services sector should also strive towards meeting the $250-billion target, the minister said while chairing a review meeting of all major Export Promotion Councils (EPCs). 

“In December alone, we touched $37-billion goods exports despite the Omicron fear factor weighing high. This month, till January 15, we have reached $16 billion,” an official statement quoted the minister as saying.
