What happened
India's export of coir and coir products grew 52 per cent in value and 12 per cent in volume during FY26, reaching export earnings of ₹6,614 crore. Arjun Mahadevan was appointed President of the Coir Shippers Council. According to reports, coir pith exports increased by 13.50 per cent in volume and 72.30 per cent in value.
Why it matters
The growth was attributed to the increasing contribution of coco peat and other agro-based coir products, alongside the appreciation of the US dollar against the Indian rupee, which boosted rupee realizations for exporters. Arjun Mahadevan noted that the industry needs to shift toward a profitability-oriented business model.
