Operational airports
mediumAbsolute change vs prior period — derived from "Operational airports".
Counts drift between releases (157, 159, 160, 163) because 'operational' sometimes includes heliports, water aerodromes and seasonally-served strips. Treat the trend as solid and any single year as ±5.
Airports by classification
mediumBreakdown of operational airports by customs and international designation.

Aerodromes operationalised under UDAN
highCount of airports, heliports and water aerodromes brought into scheduled service under the UDAN regional connectivity scheme since 2016.
UDAN routes inaugurated
mediumCumulative count of regional air routes started under the UDAN scheme.
Cumulative inaugurations, not currently-flying routes. A material share of UDAN routes have been discontinued after their three-year viability-gap subsidy expired — the scheme's central unresolved weakness.

Operational metro rail network
highTotal length of metro rail in revenue service across Indian cities.
India passed 1,000 km in October 2025 to become the third-largest metro network in the world, behind China and the United States.

Cities with operational metro rail
highCount of Indian cities with a metro system in revenue service.

Daily metro rail ridership
mediumAverage daily passenger journeys across all operational Indian metro systems.
Ridership grew 4x while network length grew 4.1x — meaning average passengers per kilometre has been flat. New lines are not, on average, as well used as the old ones.

Cargo handled at major ports
highTotal cargo throughput at India's centrally-administered major ports in a fiscal year.
Cargo handled at major ports
highShare of total — derived from "Cargo handled at major ports".
Cargo handled at all ports
mediumTotal cargo throughput across both major and non-major (state) ports.
Non-major ports have grown faster than major ports over the period, driven largely by private terminals on the west coast.

Total port capacity
mediumInstalled annual cargo handling capacity across major and non-major ports.
Capacity (2,817 MTPA) runs well ahead of throughput (1,668 MT) — utilisation near 59%. Headroom is healthy; it also means further capacity spending has weak near-term returns.

Average vessel turnaround time at major ports
mediumMean time a vessel spends in port from arrival to departure.
Genuine operational gain, and one of the few Indian logistics metrics that now beats several developed-economy averages.

Total exports (goods + services)
highCombined merchandise and services exports for the fiscal year, as reported by the Department of Commerce.
FY2024-25 was first reported at $820.93 bn and later revised to $825.26 bn as late services returns came in. Services export data is estimated monthly and revised for up to a year.

Merchandise exports
highValue of physical goods exported during the fiscal year.
Effectively flat in FY2025-26. This is the clearest single sign that 'Make in India' has not yet converted into export competitiveness in goods.
