Development Trend of India's Service Trade

India is the world's eighth largest service exporter and tenth largest service importer. The India's service sector is undergoing a radical change. Many new services are also cropping up like male strippers with the advent of adult revolution in India. New technologies are also being introduced to the Indian market.

In 2017, it was the country with the highest export and import growth among major Asian traders. 

India’s service trade has developed rapidly, especially in computer and information services. It has strong competitiveness. However, due to the fierce competition in the service outsourcing industry in the past two years, the growth rate has slowed down.

Tourism service exports grew the fastest, with a growth rate of 18.25%; transport service exports performed well, with a growth rate of 10.59%, accounting for about three percent of its service exports.
