NCDEX and Cotton Association of India Partner to Enhance Cotton Derivatives Market
NCDEX and the Cotton Association of India (CAI) have signed a five-year strategic partnership to enhance India's cotton derivatives market. The collaboration aims to improve price discovery, promote futures trading, and build a stronger hedging culture among farmers, ginners, spinners, exporters, and traders. India produces a significant share of global cotton but has limited influence on price benchmarks. The partnership seeks to strengthen NCDEX's cotton derivatives platform and support transparent risk management across the cotton value chain.
