The ministry is aiming to triple the market share to USD 10 billion. “We are looking at increasing it to USD 10 billion,” said AYUSH Secretary Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha while addressing a gathering during an event organized by Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).

AYUSH Secretary further informed that ministry is taking initiatives to popularise Ayurveda in India and overseas. “There has been a growth of 15.38 per cent in the number of patients treated with traditional medicine systems through AYUSH hospitals and dispensaries.

“Due to the resurgence in the global demand for AYUSH and herbal products, the total value of export of such products has increased to form USD 354.68 million in the year 2014-15 to USD 401.68 million in the year 2016-17 in the global market,” he added.
