As evidenced by the data published by AYUSH in its 2007 annual report, the popularity and commerce of Ayurveda have improved tremendously during the eight years following 2001. After the first WAC (World Ayurveda Congress) in December 2002, the foreign trade of AYUSH products increased by 48 per cent over the previous year, an increase of Rs 5862 million. The volume of trade increased from Rs 12786 million to Rs 18648 million. There has been a continuous growth of the AYUSH exports thereafter, showing a 74 per cent growth in volume in 2007 as compared to that in 2002. More than 86 per cent of trade related to AYUSH is contributed by Ayurveda.
