  • In north India, cotton yarn prices remained stable amid weak demand, with the market expecting an upturn next month.
  • The new payment rule has led to buyer hesitancy, particularly in Ludhiana and Delhi, where cotton yarn and recycled yarn markets are witnessing slow demand.
  • Cotton prices increased in Punjab and Haryana but stayed stable in Rajasthan.

Cotton yarn prices were steady in the Ludhiana market. Demand was weak as buyers were not interested in taking on any liability in the current fiscal due to the implications of the new payment rule. Gulshan Jain, a trader from the Ludhiana market, told Fibre2Fashion, "Buyers are expected to remain inactive until March **. The market will take some time to react to the minimum import price imposed on imported synthetic knitted fabric. There were apprehensions about the diversion of synthetic knitted fabric into the HS codes, on which no MIP is imposed."
