South India's cotton yarn prices steady amid slightly improved demand

While cotton yarn prices remained stable amid slightly better demand, the sentiment in south India differed from that in north India. A Mumbai trader told Fibre2Fashion, "Cotton yarn prices held steady due to slightly improved buying from the downstream industry, likely driven by local demand for the festival season. However, the ongoing crisis in Bangladesh continues to be a concern for the yarn market."
