Introduction
India is the sixth-largest exporter of textiles globally, contributing 8.21% to the country’s total exports in 2023-2024. The sector holds a 4.5% share in global trade, with the United States and European Union accounting for 47% of India's textile and apparel exports.
The textile industry in India provides direct employment to over 45 million people and supports the livelihoods of over 100 million individuals indirectly. A large proportion of women and rural workers are benefitted by this industry.
India Shining
India’s position as a global textile hub has been strengthened by the government’s focus on increasing textile manufacturing, modernising infrastructure, fostering innovation and upgrading technology.
India is one of the largest producers of cotton and synthetic fibres and this includes handloom artisans and cutting-edge technical textiles as well. Like in any other industry, this industry has its own challenges like fluctuating raw material prices, outdated manufacturing infrastructure and global competition.
Thankfully, we do have strong policy intervention and that is sure to aid our sustained growth story.
In the Union Budget 2025-26, a 19% increase in allocation of funds happened reflecting the government’s commitment to unlock new opportunities for the growth of the textile industry.
