Have the speculations of India’s staggering loss worth USD 4.56 billion from metal exports to the US post-tariffs come true? Statistics strongly disagree. In the January-March quarter (Q1) of 2026, India’s export value of primary aluminium to the United States surged by 43.64 per cent year-on-year to USD 154.66 million from USD 107.67 million. Is this upward streak likely to continue? Outlook strongly agrees.
A striking improvement can be noticed in the cumulative export value of India’s primary aluminium shipments to the US, which climbed to USD 387 million in 2025 from USD 173.22 million recorded in 2024, marking a 123.6 per cent hike.
