South Indian yarn prices stable; rising cotton costs create disparity

In Tiruppur, cotton yarn prices remained steady with moderate demand from fabric manufacturers. Prices had increased due to the higher cost of natural fibre. A Tiruppur-based trader told Fibre2Fashion, "The market has experienced average demand but managed to retain last week’s price increase. However, a further price hike is not viable at this stage. Both domestic and export demand for cotton yarn remains limited, but better demand is expected in the coming weeks."
