India’s bauxite trade rode a wave of highs and lows through the first half of 2025. Global demand shifts, changing tariffs, and mining hurdles at home kept exports swinging sharply from one month to the next.
Even with the volatility, India’s performance between January and June (H1 2025) was far stronger than a year earlier. Export earnings rose 143 per cent to USD 12.81 million, compared with USD 5.27 million in H1 2024, while shipments increased 80 per cent to 385,641 tonnes from 214,575 tonnes.
