In April-October FY25, India exported $711.95 million worth of PV cells assembled in modules or panels with 96 per cent of the shipments going to the US with the world's largest economy turning away from China. India also exported $25 million of photovoltaic cells that were not assembled into modules in April-October FY25 with 90 per cent of the exports going to the US.

The US was also a key export market for Indian solar photovoltaic (PV) modules, accounting for more than 97 per cent of the country's solar PV exports in both FY2023 and FY2024.
