According to EY's Economic Pulse report, India's exports have performed well, and its total exports of goods have increased by 59% over May 2020 and stayed stable compared to April 2020.

The reports said that the sales of fertilisers in the rural economy in April 2021 have declined vis-a-vis in April 2020. The tractor sales have also sharply fallen in April-May 2021. It highlights that the rural economy has been impacted due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA) data indicated that the migration of laborers from cities to rural areas have been limited in the Covid-19's second wave.

Overall, it said that both the recorded Covid-19 cases and deaths are declining, and the vaccination of the entire population is the best strategy for the country's economy.
