Being home to the largest population in the world, India is one of the largest markets globally for textiles & apparels manufacturing. Domestically too, the industry contributes over two percent to the country’s GDP and comprises 11.4 percent of our overall exports, thus being the third largest exporter of textiles and apparels in the world. Given such fine conditions, India currently houses one of the largest numbers of textile and apparel businesses in the world. As a result, the recent government estimates put the textiles industry to be worth $250 billion by 2025. Though at present the textile and apparel industry is passing through a difficult time globally due to the war between Russia and Ukraine. It will take some time to recover.
Textile Industry is also a fashion industry besides being an important basic need of human being like Food, Shelter and Cloth. As a result, the application of textiles during the last 10 years has taken a transformative change from normal fabrics to fashion fabrics. Its usage has widened to Technical Textiles, Geo Textiles, Medical Textiles, Protective Textiles (for army and similar services) and many others. This has been possible with the introduction of large variety of natural & synthetics fibers, organic & non-organic fibres, many types of chemicals, woven, knitted and non-woven fabrics.
