]]> Prime Minister Narendra Modi applauded the Central Government’s web portal, Government e-Marketplace (GeM), to procure goods and services for central and state government, for achieving the milestone of Rs 1 lakh crore order value in one year.

The Prime Minister wrote on Twitter, “Happy to know that @GeM_India has achieved order value of Rs 1 Lakh Crore in a single year! This is a significant increase from previous years. The GeM platform is especially empowering MSMEs, with 57% of order value coming from MSME sector.”

Minister of Commerce & Industry Piyush Goyal also shared a short video and congratulated the stakeholders of GeM for their contribution towards the Government’s vision of AtmaNirbharBharat.

The Union Minister Tweeted,” Today, GeM has clocked order value of INR 1 Lakh crore in a single year in FY 2021-22. Congratulations to all stakeholders especially the sellers in MSME sector, women entrepreneurs, startups, weavers and artisans in continuing to contribute to the vision of an AtmaNirbharBharat.”

As per the government data, order worth Rs 422 Crore were placed in the initial year, which rose to a whopping Rs 6,188 Crore in the next year. The web portal registered Rs 38,500 Crore orders in the pandemic year of 2020-21 that increased up to 160 per cent crossing the mark of Rs 1 lakh crore in the current financial year.

GeM- Govt e-Marketplace crosses Rs 1 lakh Cr order value

Reportedly, the launch of the ‘Womaniya’ scheme for women entrepreneurs and women-led self-help groups or SHGs, selling their handicrafts, handloom, accessories, etc. directly to government ministries and departments, and training of women entrepreneurs by various national and state women organisations is considered to be one of the reasons of the growth of GeM.

]]> In a first, India has achieved its good export target crossing $400 Billion nine days ahead of schedule, which is a whopping rise from last year’s exports that stood at $292 Billion in 2020-21.

On Monday, reportedly, commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal said that India will clock around $410 billion of goods exports in FY22, higher than the $400 billion aimed despite the “problems in the Northern part of Europe and Asia”.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to Twitter to applaud this huge achievement; he wrote, “India set an ambitious target of $400 Billion of goods exports and achieves this target for the first time ever. I congratulate our farmers, weavers, MSMEs, manufacturers, exporters for this success. This is a key milestone in our Aatmanirbhar Bharat journey.”

PM’s Tweet

While India maintained an average of $30 Billion exports for 11 consecutive months, it registered the highest ever monthly merchandise exports of $39.3 Billion in December 2021.

Giving credit to PM Modi’s call for the #LocalGoesGlobal initiative, Commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal tweeted, “PM Narendra Modi Ji’s clarion call of #LocalGoesGlobal is a reality. Under your visionary leadership, India has scripted history by achieving an ambitious target of $400 Billion of goods export within a single year. Make in India lion is roaring aloud across the world.

As per the government data, petroleum products, electronic goods, engineering goods, leather, coffee, plastic, ready-made garments of all textiles, meat and dairy products, marine products, and tobacco have remained the key sectors for exports. While wheat, rice, marine products, sugar, and spice are the top agricultural products, India has become a major global supplier of food & essential agriculture products.

The government of India shared a short video on MyGovIndia social media on this new milestone.

This year’s blockbuster exports in India is a result of PM Modi’s call for the #LocalGoesGlobal under Atmanirbhar Bharat.
