Indian Economic & Textile Industry overview - The Indian Economy continues to show resilience amid Global Uncertainties. Despite significant challenges in the global environment, India was one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Indias overall growth remains robust and the Indian Economy closed with 7.2% GDP growth in financial year 2022-23. Indias Economic Survey 2022-23 indicates that private investment gathered momentum during the current fiscal in all major sectors, including the textile sector.

However, manufacturing industries like textiles, apparel and leather have been showing tepid growth as the export demand for these products remained soft due to slow global demand. However, the overall Indian economy is relatively strong and is outperforming major economies; the textile sector is a notable exception. Exports which constituted 22% of industry have fallen significantly.

Opportunities & Threats: The rapid industrialization in the developed and developing countries and the evolving technology are helping the textile industry to have modern installations which are capable of high-efficient fabric production. The Textile and Apparel market is poised to grow, led by boost in demand and the government support in form of attractive schemes such as Production Linked Incentive (PLI), Mega Investment Textile Parks (MITRA) will further drive the way for the US$ 250 billion target. Another step taken by the Ministry of Textiles towards positioning India as a global leader in technical textiles manufacturing is the invitation of Research proposals for Funding for Design, Development and Manufacturing of Machinery, Tools, Equipment, and Testing Instruments under NTTM.

The global economy is gradually recovering from the impact of pandemic and at the same time facing new challenges emerging from Russias invasion of Ukraine. The slowdown in global growth and economic output coupled with increased uncertainty is likely to dampen global trade growth. These may be exacerbated by plateauing export growth on account of slackening global demand.
