According to data from NaftoRynok, India supplied 15.5 per cent of Ukraine's diesel fuel imports in July 2025, making it the country's top supplier for the month.

The average daily volume of Indian diesel imports reached approximately 2,700 tons, representing one of the highest indicators for 2025.

From January to July 2025, India's share in Ukraine's diesel supply structure reached 10.2 per cent - more than five times higher than the 1.9 per cent recorded during the same period in 2024.

One barell is around 83usd.

This can provide a 1000-2000 jobs which are shielded from regular layoffs.

India is the only place in Asia for Western MNCs to build Data centers. As data centers require uninterrupted power source at large capacity along optimal temperature. Providing 1GW capacity to a single place is no joke.

We are far behind China but an easy second leader in Asia and one of the global leader. Compared to our economy, our renewable energy stats are nothing short of remarkable.

Credit where its due, this is achievement of BJPs government as the turnaround happened after 2014. We have 50% share in installed capacity now and will reach 30% renewable energy mix in consumption in India in 2025.

So, every positive development after 2014 is credited to BJP, but every negative one is blamed on Nehru and Gandhi? And then you wonder why people label you as 'andhbhakhts'. :yk :inti

While the India - US relations needs to be back to the status quo, it is extremely important for India to have more FTAs with other nations for exports. Supply-chain diversifications means manufacturers will have more options along with India. Hence, we also need more exposure and grab localized opportunities.

May be this tariffs thing is a blessing in disguise that the push for export diversification is growing. Else, we were too complacent unlike Chinese who spread their wings rapidly.

Andhra Pradesh has witnessed some good capital flows this year primarily into oil refineries, renewable energy, defense and electronic manufacturing.

Though not a typical high paying jobs like IT services, they will for sure provide employment with pay-scale good enough in rural areas. Have to wait and see the impact in next 5-10 years as manufacturing has been primarily driven towards Tier 2/3 cities and villages due to lower costs ( these are ~200-300km near larger cities / Transport hubs, so optimal locations). This may reverse the migration towards Tier-1 cities too. Cost of living is <50-60% compared to Tier-1 cities and decent salaries can enable good standard of living.

A reason why South India has seen some remarkable turnaround.

China has employer SEZs from 1980’s. We caught up to this trend late but, better late than never.

Tax breaks, subsidized electricity costs, almost negligence land costs are some of the key reasons why Manufacturers are rushing towards South India.

Tamilnadu has become the home for Auto and electronics manufacturing. They have a complete ecosystem there, hence other states require monumental efforts to attract manufacturers now.

Kia has received some huge incentives - “
The state government spent over Rs 450 crore on land and infrastructure development (roads, electricity, water supply, besides other facilities, for the plant).
Several tax incentives and power tariff concessions were also offered for 20 years.”

10,000+ jobs are being provided by Kia with 7000+ from local villages itself.

India need to reduce taxes on Autos further so that we attract local and foreign manufactures quickly. Autos has been the back-bone of economy for blue-collar jobs in the West.

We may see BYD investment in Hyderabad during next year. Tesla will take more time probably.
 
INDIA BECOMES THIRD-LARGEST AGROCHEMICAL EXPORTER

India’s agrochemical exports have nearly tripled in a decade, reaching $3.3 billion in FY25, making it the world’s third-largest exporter after China and the US, according to a report by the Agro-Chemicals Federation of India (ACFI) and Deloitte.

The domestic market, valued at Rs 69,000 crore in FY24, is driven by insecticides (41%), herbicides (22%), and fungicides (21%), with herbicides growing fastest at a 10% CAGR from FY21-24.

Eight key crops—rice, cotton, wheat, soybean, chillies, grapes, sugarcane, and gram—account for 65% of the market.
