What happened
The Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry & Dairying has published state-wise seafood export performance data for 2021-22 to 2025-26. The release gives quantity and value figures for States and Union Territories and is useful mainly as a trade-statistics and marine-economy reference.
The table covers major coastal and non-coastal locations such as Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, West Bengal, and Delhi, along with other States and Union Territories. It also provides yearly totals for exported quantity and value.
UPSC can use this data to ask which coastal States and Union Territories dominate seafood exports, how export performance is tracked, and why fisheries matter for the blue economy, livelihoods, and India’s trade basket.
