Foreign Trade Policy, 2009-14

The Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2009-14 was

declining trend of exports as well as to provide
additional support especially to those sectors
which were hit badly by recession in the
developed world. The Policy envisaged an
annual export growth of 15 per cent with an
annual export target of US$ 200 billion by March
2011 and to come back on the high export
growth path of around 25 per cent per annum
in the remaining three years of this Foreign Trade
Policy i.e. up to 2014. The long term policy
