India's Textile Industry Targets USD 350 Billion by 2030 Amid Export Growth
India's textile industry grew to nearly USD 190 billion in FY26 and aims to reach USD 350 billion by 2030, driven by domestic demand, manufacturing investments, and export growth. Exports, including handicrafts, rose 10.3% year-on-year in April-August 2026 after a prior decline, with the US as the largest market. Challenges include rising cotton prices, trade uncertainties, and freight disruptions. The government is considering a Rs 400 billion TEEM Scheme to modernize the sector and enhance competitiveness.
