Challenges Mount for Indian Textile ExportsThe textile industry, a significant contributor to India's export economy, has witnessed a decline in exports over the past year, according to government sources. This decline is attributed to a combination of factors including subdued global demand and geopolitical tensions, particularly the Red Sea conflict.Between April 2023 and February 2024, textile exports experienced an annual fall. Readymade garment exports fell from $14.73 billion to $13.05 billion, yarn shipments decreased from $4.47 billion to $4.23 billion, and jute exports declined from $400 million to $310 million during this period. However, there has been a positive sign in February 2024 with over 12% growth in textile exports compared to the previous year.The Red Sea conflict has played a significant role in exacerbating the situation, leading to increased shipping costs and longer turnaround times. This has been attributed to reduced services by private shipping lines. In response, an inter-ministerial panel has been convened to address the impact of the conflict. The Department of Financial Services has been directed to ensure a steady flow of credit for exporters, while the Ministry of Shipping has been tasked with monitoring trade volumes.Overall, the government is working to mitigate the challenges faced by the textile export sector, recognizing the importance of maintaining competitiveness in the global market amidst evolving geopolitical dynamics and economic uncertainties.Read More....👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻January 2024: Import of Indian cotton yarn in China increases

CCI Procures 32.81 Lakh Bales of Cotton at MSP for 2023-24 SeasonThe Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) has announced that it has procured 32.81 lakh bales of cotton at minimum support price (MSP) during the ongoing 2023-24 season. The majority of the cotton has been acquired from Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Gujarat.As the government's designated agency for cotton procurement at MSP, CCI intervenes when market prices fall below the MSP level. Last year, CCI did not engage in procurement as market prices remained above MSP. However, this season, prices began to decline from mid-October 2023, prompting CCI to initiate procurement operations.According to a senior CCI official, around 32.81 lakh bales, each weighing 170 kg, have been purchased at MSP so far. Notably, CCI has already sold 3.70 lakh bales of the procured cotton.For the 2023-24 season, the government has set MSP at Rs 6,620 per quintal for medium staple cotton and Rs 7,020 per quintal for long-staple cotton.With cotton prices in the open market currently surpassing MSP, it is unlikely that farmers will sell their produce to CCI. However, the agency remains prepared for procurement if market rates drop below the support price again.The estimated cotton production for the 2023-24 season stands at 323.11 lakh bales, a decrease from the 336.6 lakh bales achieved in the previous season, according to estimates from the agriculture ministry.Read more....👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻Growth in China's Cotton Linter Imports

Growth in China's Cotton Linter ImportsChina's cotton linter import market has shown remarkable growth in the first two months of 2024, with import volumes surging more than threefold year-on-year. Imports from India have dominated the market, while imports from the United States have experienced a significant resurgence.Customs data reveals that China imported approximately 7,042.49 tons of cotton linter in February 2024, marking a 22% increase from the previous month and a staggering 344.7% increase compared to the same period last year. The total import volume for January and February combined reached 12,814.1 tons, representing a remarkable 305.1% year-on-year growth.This substantial increase in import volume can be attributed to various factors, including limited domestic supply due to operational constraints in Chinese cottonseed oil mills and delinting plants since the fourth quarter of 2023. Consequently, the demand for imported cotton linter has risen, driving up prices.In February 2024, the average import price of cotton linter stood at $374.55/mt, indicating a 4.05% increase from the previous month and a notable 23.27% increase year-on-year. This rise in prices has been accompanied by an increase in demand for industry-grade refined cotton, particularly cotton linter pulp.India remains the top supplier of cotton linter to China, followed by Brazil, Tanzania, and the United States, which collectively account for nearly 96% of total imports. The surge in imports from India can be attributed to price advantages and the growing demand for refined cotton, with imports from India experiencing a 476.1% year-on-year increase from January to February, totaling 8,671.5 tons.In contrast, imports from the United States witnessed a sharp decline in 2023 due to various factors, including strained Sino-US relations and evolving demand dynamics. However, imports from the United States have rebounded significantly in 2024, with a total of 771.1 tons imported from January to February, representing an 8,476.8% year-on-year growth.Shandong has traditionally been a key region for cotton linter imports in China, with Jiangsu emerging as a significant importer, accounting for 38.6% of imports in January and February 2024.In summary, China's cotton linter import market has witnessed impressive growth in the first two months of 2024, driven by increased demand and limited domestic supply. Imports from India have surged, maintaining their dominance in the market, while imports from the United States have experienced a notable resurgence after a decline in the previous year.Read more....👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻CCI purchased 6.35 lakh quintals of cotton in Madhya Pradesh

Louis Dreyfus Company's 2023 Sales Decline Amid Falling Commodity PricesLouis Dreyfus Company (LDC), a leading global agricultural commodity group, reported a significant 15.5% decline in sales for 2023. This decrease was attributed to a sharp drop in commodity prices amidst geopolitical tensions and climate-related disruptions to trade flows.

Exporters Seek Exemption from 45-Day Payment Rule to MSMEsIndian exporters, represented by 15 export promotion councils, including the Federation of Indian Export Organisations, are urging for an exemption from a new rule mandating payment to micro and small enterprises (MSMEs) within 45 days.Around 150,000 exporters have raised concerns, stating that the provision will impact their liquidity, considering exports payments often have an average lag of 120 days.The rule, Section 43B(h) of the Income Tax Act, aims to address delayed payments to UDYAM-registered micro and small entities, but exporters are seeking an extension to 120 days.Exporters argue that the move could affect their competitiveness internationally, and they stress the need for a level playing field compared to other countries where credit terms are more generous.Industry representatives highlight challenges, including increased cash flow difficulties amidst geopolitical uncertainties, and propose exempting supplies from MSMEs to exporters from this provision.While acknowledging the importance of timely payments, exporters advocate for a phased reduction in time to address concerns from both sides.The handicrafts industry, facing credit periods of 180 days, finds the 45-day payment rule particularly challenging, given the extended timeframes involved in export shipments and payment realization.Overall, exporters seek exemptions to help them adjust to the new provision and maintain competitiveness in the global market.Read More....👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻Positive Projections CCPC Forecasts Growth in Indian Cotton Industry
Textiles Exports Surge by 17% Year-on-Year in FebruaryThe textiles industry is celebrating a significant milestone as it records robust export performance for February, marking positive growth trends for the 11-month period of the current financial year.Data released by the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI) indicates substantial growth in key segments such as cotton yarn, fabrics, and made-ups, with exports experiencing a remarkable 17% surge in February compared to the previous year.This promising uptick bodes well for Gujarat’s textiles sector, with exports of these products showing resilience over the past 11 months, boasting a commendable 6.7% increase compared to the corresponding period last year.In February 2024, Indian textiles exports grew by 19.54% year-on-year, while apparel exports also saw a respectable uptick of 4.88% during the same timeframe.The cumulative exports of textiles and apparel during February 2024 displayed a growth of 12.49% over the preceding year.However, the overall scenario for the April 2023 to February 2024 period presents a mixed picture, with Indian textiles exports registering a modest growth of 1.75% year-on-year, juxtaposed with a notable decline of 11.42% in apparel exports during the same timeframe. The cumulative exports of textiles and apparel during this period showcased a decrease of 4.25% compared to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year.Industry experts attribute this positive trajectory in cotton yarn and fabric exports to India’s competitive cotton prices throughout the current financial year, which have bolstered demand in international markets, particularly in countries like Bangladesh and China.Gujarat has notably benefited from this trend, enjoying a substantial share in cotton yarn, fabric, and made-up exports.Conversely, the apparel segment has faced challenges, experiencing a decline primarily due to heightened input costs and subdued demand in various countries amidst soaring inflation. Bharat Chhajer, former chairman of Powerloom Development and Export Promotion Council (PDEXCIL), highlighted the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, coupled with the Red Sea crisis, which has increased business costs and pricing pressures. Additionally, stiff competition from nations like Vietnam and Bangladesh, along with the reduction in cotton prices, has contributed to the decrease in the value of apparel exports from India.Read More....👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻Rapid rise in gin cotton prices has created concern among textile manufacturers and traders
