Tobacco industry in India is one of the largest in the world with India having the largest area under tobacco cultivation. It plays an important role in the country’s economy. Compound annual growth rate and Cuddy-Delle-Velle instability index were used to measure the growth and instability in export of tobacco from India. The necessary secondary data were collected for a period of 22 years from 1994-95 to 2015-16. There is a positive and significant growth rate in export of tobacco both in terms of quantity (6.20%) and value (14.25%) which was associated with a medium instability index. This shows that the share of Indian tobacco compared to the global share of tobacco traded was found to be favourable and hence the advantageous situation could be for India. Therefore there is need to regulate and explore new technologies and market for better exploitation of tobacco at large to boost Indian exports.
