India's Exports Growth Slows in June

By Anant Vijay Kala Dow Jones Newswires

India's exports grew 4.4% from a year earlier to $23.56 billion in June, government data showed Friday.

That marked the tenth straight-month of increase, although it was slower than May's 8.3% rise.

Imports jumped 19% to $36.52 billion, widening the trade deficit to $12.96 billion from $8.12 billion a year earlier.

The slower rise in exports would grow concerns that international demand for Indian goods is cooling off.
