1. WOW....how great "$ 264 billion" is!!!...but in 2011, it was 302.9 bn, and then 296.8 bn(2012), 314.8 bn(2013) , 322.7(2014)...Exports: Do you have any idea how much we exported in 2015?
Take a wild guess......
It is $ 264 billion, and we rank 20th. Weak industrial base seems a joke to you, but not to the world.
2. so called GDP(PPP) 3rd nation in the world only ranks 20th in export ,which is really not something worth being so pround...LOL... and it just proves the other's point...
why not have a look to find what the 1st-19th cournties are and how much they exported in 2015
------------------------------------
1. Mainland China 2274.9
2. USA 1504.9
3. Germany 1329.4
4. Japan 624.9
5. Holand 567.2
6. South Korea 526.7
7. Hongkong China 510.5

14. Singapore 350.6
15. Russia 340.3
16. Switerland 289.8
17. Taiwan China 285.4
18. Spain 282.8
19. India 267.1 《--------- it's 19th
------------------------------------------------------------
but the so called 'Export' data can't reflect the so called ‘Industry base/ability'...coz some courntry export the raw material/resource mainly(Russia) and quite some country doing quite a lot transit trade(Hongkong ,Singapore, Holland etc).
here's another table about the manufactured products export..
on this table India export the 200.4 bn USD in 2014(of 322.7 bn all export ), which is about 1.64% of the total amount in the world...it might be able to explain how much the indian industry ability got improved step by step.
ps. left column in red: the manufactured products export amount(100 million usd) since 1980
right column: the proportion of total amount in the world
BTW, on this table...
so called GDP(ppp)No.1 China: exported manufactured products worth 2201.6 (17.98%)
GDP(ppp)No.2 USA: 1163.8(9.51%)
GDP(ppp)No.3 or 4? Japan: 597.9(4.88%)
Germany: 1287.6 (10.52%)
Fance: (3.72%)
UK: (2.87%)
S.Korea: (4.04%)
Holland: (3.4%)
Moxico: (2.52%)
-------------
some Indian enjoy talking aboout so called GPD(PPP) which is really very funny...the reality hurts...
