Ms. Reddy emphasized that India’s services sector is ready to take centerstage. She noted that services have been expanding at 11–15% annually and already power India’s exports. “With a demographic dividend unlike any other, this is the time to invest in skilling and job creation in services, especially healthcare. India can be a global exporter of knowledge, people and services,” she said. Pointing to the external account, she added, “Our $90 billion trade deficit with the US can be offset by exporting services. Medical Value Travel alone is a $100 billion global opportunity by 2030; India should target a $20 billion share.”
