Doklam Effect: Trade At Nathu La Dips 90% 
 The trade between India and China at the Nathu La border dropped by 90% in 2017 owing to the standoff at Doklam between the two countries.

According to the figures provided by the Department of Commerce and Industries, Government of Sikkim, the value of exports from India to China in 2016 was ₹ 63.38 crore and the import from China was ₹19.30 crore.

In 2017, exports dropped to ₹7.83 crore while imports from China dipped to just ₹ 1.02 crore.

“In 2017, trade was closed for a few months because of Doklam. This year the trade reopened on May 1 but it has not returned to what it was in 2016,” Subrata Lakra, Superintendent of Customs at the Serathang land checkpost, told The Hindu. 

In the first two months since trade resumed in 2018 — May and June — the value of exports was ₹7.3 crore and imports ₹ 0.45 crore.
