    The Government of India is expected to unveil a fresh set of support measures for exporters later this week as authorities move to help businesses navigate rising global trade uncertainties and logistical disruptions.

    Officials familiar with the discussions said the proposed measures are aimed at easing financial pressures on exporters and ensuring the continuity of shipments amid growing geopolitical tensions and supply chain challenges affecting international trade.

    The support package may include expanded credit access, enhanced export incentives, and logistical assistance for sectors facing higher freight and insurance costs. Exporters in industries such as engineering goods, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and agricultural products are likely to benefit from the proposed steps.

    Industry groups have been urging the government to introduce relief measures as shipping disruptions and volatility in global markets increase operational costs and create uncertainty for overseas deliveries.

    The upcoming announcement is also expected to focus on strengthening India’s export competitiveness by facilitating smoother trade processes and improving support for small and medium-sized exporters.

    Officials said the government is closely monitoring global trade developments and remains prepared to introduce further policy adjustments if required to protect export growth and maintain momentum in the country’s external trade sector.
