Indian polyester, viscose yarn up on fibre cost hike, export optimism

Insights

• Polyester and viscose yarn prices rose by ₹*–* per kg across Indian markets due to higher virgin polyester fibre costs, stronger demand, and a ceasefire-driven drop in crude oil prices.
• A weaker rupee, increased freight charges, and reduced viscose output further fuelled the surge.
• Cotton prices also firmed up in north India on improved demand and strong ICE futures.
