India's Textile Sector Sees Growth Boost from Trade Deals and Market Shifts
India's textile and apparel sector is poised for growth due to recent free trade agreements (FTAs) with the UK and EU, which provide expanded duty-free market access. Despite past export challenges caused by domestic structural issues, ongoing reforms aim to improve competitiveness. Additionally, global supply chain shifts away from China and strong domestic demand are reviving the sector. Analysts and brokerage reports highlight positive investor sentiment, with textile stocks outperforming broader markets amid expectations of increased exports and industry expansion.
