India’s rice exports remain flat at $ 7.3 bn in April-Nov.

India’s rice exports during April-November, 2025-26, remain flat at $ 7.3 billion, a marginally higher amount than the previous year, due to higher global stocks and robust crop yield across major producing countries. The US imposed higher tariffs, and Iran, facing an economic crisis, has hit India’s rice exports in the current fiscal year.  According to DGCIS, the rice exports dropped 30% in November 2025 to $ 0.79 billion from $ 1.12 billion during November last year. During April-November 2024-25, the country exported rice valued at $ 7.29 billion. Overall shipment of rice was 19.86 million tonne (MT) during FY25, which was valued at a record $ 12.47 billion. The US imposing a tariff on rice imports from India has some impact on basmati rice exports in the current fiscal year, as per a report.
