U.K.’s development finance institution CDC Group is investing ₹250 crore in solar energy firm Fourth Partner Energy. The capital will be in the form of non-convertible debentures. The mezzanine capital will be deployed in growing its renewable-solutions platform across India and South Asia, a statement from Fourth Partner Energy said. Managing Director and Head of Asia at CDC Srini Nagarajan said “we have been building scale in the renewable power sector and this investment into Fourth Partner Energy, on the distributed solar side of the sector, is a strategic investment that further enhances India’s renewable power capacity.”
According to recent Foreign Trade Performance Analysis data, India’s overall exports remained resilient in late 2025, even as traditional sectors faced sharp declines. While shipments of gems and jewellery to the U.S. plummeted, the overall figures were bolstered by a massive 237% surge in telecom exports, particularly smartphones. Data shows that Indian exporters are aggressively diversifying their portfolios. By deepening ties with existing partners and discovering new alliances, India is replacing lost U.S. sales with a more diversified set of trade partners
