The government on Friday (April 10, 2026) announced that it had held two inter-ministerial meetings to discuss the various issues being faced by exporters in light of the West Asia crisis.
According to exporters, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in India are especially struggling under not just the financial impact of the war in West Asia, but also due to a significant increase in their compliance burden and paperwork due to shipments being rerouted or returned to India.
