Cotton yarn demand eases further in south India, prices down in Mumbai

In Mumbai, the drop in cotton yarn prices was due to a further slowdown in demand. Buyers have become more cautious with fresh purchases due to weak demand from both domestic and export markets. The cyclone in Gujarat and other parts of western India has also dampened buyer enthusiasm. According to a trader from the Mumbai market who spoke to Fibre2Fashion, "Cotton yarn prices have declined because traders, stockists, and mills were forced to lower prices in the current market scenario. Market sentiments are unlikely to improve very soon."
