Structural transformation depends not only on how much countries export but also on what they export and with whom they trade. This paper breaks new ground in analyzing India’s exports by the technological content, quality, sophistication, and complexity of the export basket. We identify five priority areas for policies: (1) reduction of trade costs, at and behind the border; (2) further liberalization of FDI including through simplification of regulations and procedures; (3) improving infrastructure including in urban areas to enhance manufacturing and services in cities; (4) preparing labor resources (skills) and markets (flexibility) for the technological progress that will shape jobs in the years ahead; and (5) creating an enabling environment for innovation and entrepreneurship to draw the economy into higher productivity activities.

Over the past years, both India and China have demonstrated dynamism in their international as well as bilateral trade relations. While both countries have registered a rise in merchandise trade as well as trade of commercial services, the significance of merchandise trade, for exports as well as imports separately, is established. Their bilateral trade statistics indicate a transformation both in terms of values and percentage growth. The structure of bilateral exports is found to be highly skewed with exports from India dominated by resource based exports and products with low value added component. Imports from China display a fairly high degree of concentration among few products only, though this is not as high as for exports. Imports occur mostly in items with relatively high value added components and are very much in alignment with China's export strategy.
