    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, Feb 5 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Indian toy makers are celebrating big wins after showcasing their toys at the Nuremberg International Toy Fair in Germany.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The fair, which ended on February 3, attracted over 2,000 exhibitors from 65 countries.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Indian toy exporters shared that they received huge orders, totalling crores of rupees, because buyers from countries like the US, UK, South Africa, and Germany loved their products.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;CEO of Little Genius Toys Pvt Ltd, Naresh Kumar Gautam, shared that their toys, including wooden educational ones and soft toys, got a lot of love.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;He mentioned that there's a growing dislike for Chinese toys, which worked in favour of Indian toys.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Interestingly, two Chinese firms are interested in teaming up with Little Genius for making toys in India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;To meet the increased demand, Gautam said they plan to increase their toy-making operations soon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;He also highlighted that the government's quality rules and lower customs duty have helped the toy industry grow faster.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Natkhat Toys promoter Tarun Chetwani echoed similar sentiments, stating that the fair provided an ideal platform to showcase the company's high-quality products.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;He emphasised the Indian toy sector's robust growth, with several companies from Greater Noida participating in the fair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The good news extends beyond the fair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;India's toy exports have shot up from USD 96.17 million in 2014-15 to an impressive USD 325.72 million in 2022-23.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The government's support, including quality rules and lower import taxes, has helped the Indian toy industry thrive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Overall, toy imports have fallen by 52 per cent, showing that India is making more toys on its own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(KNN Bureau)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
