Insights

  • North India's cotton yarn market stayed stable as weak domestic demand and tight liquidity offset higher cotton prices. A softer rupee supported export orders, mainly from China, helping mills hold rates. Panipat saw costlier comber and cheaper recycled polyester, while limited cotton arrivals and strong buying by Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) kept fibre prices firm.

Cotton yarn prices in Ludhiana also held firm, with domestic demand still sluggish and liquidity concerns limiting transactions. A local trader told Fibre*Fashion, “Spinning mills secured export orders, particularly from China, as the weaker rupee created a pricing advantage. This has strengthened mills’ confidence and helped maintain current yarn price levels.”

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