- <p>Indian aquaculture has developed from traditional capture practices to a technologically advanced industry by systematic modernization, implementing flagship policies, utilizing modern technologies such as the Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) and Biofloc Technology (BFT) alongside the integration of genetic and genomic tools facilitating selective breeding programs, such as the ‘Jayanti rohu’, which produced strains with higher growth rates and improved stress tolerance maximizing production. The sector is currently moving toward a more sustainable and ecologically responsible trade by realizing and managing the ‘synergistic network of stressors,’ including habitat degradation, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and the disease burden with an aim of fulfilling the Sustainable Developmental Goals (SDGs). Management strategies are focused on empowering stakeholders through capacity building and institutional training sponsored by the government and public platforms. These efforts, supported by flagship policies like the Blue Revolution and the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY) trace the historical evolution and current policy landscape, this review also outlines how these interventions bolster the Indian economic situation, with the sector now contributing to the national GDP which in turn creates vital opportunities for enhanced infrastructure, higher income potential, and resilient livelihoods, simultaneously meeting global demands sustainably, equipping<br>fishing communities to overcome longstanding environmental and regional barriers, solidifying India’s status as a dominant leader and the world’s second-largest aquaculture producer.</p>
