North India sees steady cotton yarn prices amid slow demand

There was no significant shift in the dynamics of the cotton yarn trade. Mills continued to receive support from the downstream industry, helping maintain price stability. Although Bangladesh banned yarn imports from India via land routes, this did not halt supplies to its textile sector. A trader from the Ludhiana market told Fibre2Fashion, “The Bangladesh textile industry cannot operate without India’s cotton yarn. Therefore, shipments are now routed via sea after the land route ban. While volumes may decline, the trade continues, which is vital for Bangladesh’s textile industry.”

In Ludhiana, ** count cotton combed yarn was sold at &#****;***-*** (approximately $*.**-*.**) per kg (inclusive of GST); ** and ** count combed yarn were traded at &#****;***-*** (approximately $*.**-*.**) per kg and &#****;***-*** (approximately $*.**-*.**) per kg, respectively; and carded yarn of ** count was noted at &#****;***-*** (approximately $*.**-*.**) per kg today, according to trade sources.
