Funding the Adversary: Since Prime Minister Modi took office in 2014, India’s trade deficit with China — its principal strategic rival — has nearly tripled. Newly released figures show that in fiscal year 2025-2026, China’s trade surplus with India rose to $112.2 billion. By comparison, India’s total defense spending is about $75 billion. In effect, India is transferring more net capital to China through trade than it spends on the military capabilities meant to deter China. This creates a “funding loop,” whereby Indian demand for Chinese goods helps fuel the very economic engine driving the modernization of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). India’s widening trade deficit thus generates a distinct set of strategic and economic vulnerabilities, including the “hollowing out” of domestic manufacturing. Yet there is remarkably little public discourse in India on how such structural dependence on Chinese imports may be deepening the country’s long-term strategic exposure. India cannot credibly prepare to counter an expansionist rival, which lays claim to vast Indian territories including an entire state, while simultaneously bankrolling its rise.
