Economic scenario of USA

The United States continues to be the world's largest nominal GDP and net wealth, ranking second in GDP by PPP, behind China. The U.S. economy is expected to grow by 2.7% in 2024. This is a slowdown from the 4.9% annualized growth recorded in Q3 2023, reflecting the impact of higher inflation and tighter financial conditions. Higher inflation and tighter financial conditions are anticipated to impact spending plans across the economy, affecting both consumers and businesses. Overall, while the U.S. economy faces challenges such as higher tariffs and tighter immigration policies, it is expected to outperform many other developed economies in 2025, driven by strong domestic fundamentals and a favorable global economic environment.

Engineering trade accounts for around 25% of bilateral merchandise trade between India and USA. India's engineering exports to USA witnessed a negative growth of 5.7% during 2023-24 compared to same period last year.

However, in the current fiscal, engineering exports registered a positive growth to the extent of 5.8% reaching to US$ 10.71 billion during April-Oct 2024-25 compared to US$ 10.12 billion during same period last fiscal. USA has been consistently the top most exporting destination for India's engineering products for the last five years. On the other hand, North America region ranks as the top most destination for shipment of engineering products from India during April-Oct 2024-25 with a share of 20.4% percent of total engineering exports.

Opportunity for Indian Exporters in USA

Indian exporters have a wealth of opportunities in the USA, particularly in the engineering sector. The USA's import basket prominently features products such as Electrical Machinery and Equipment, Industrial Machinery, Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Products, and Automobile and Auto Components. Given India's strong export performance in these segments, Indian producers and traders are well- positioned to expand their presence in the US market. Participating International Fasteners Expo 2025 will enable Indian exporters to identify new market trends, discover innovative products, and establish connections with key industry players. This can lead to increased market penetration and growth opportunities in the US. Additionally, the expo will help Indian companies understand the specific requirements and standards of the US market, allowing them to tailor their products accordingly and enhance their competitiveness.
