Due to the scarcity of new orders, textile enterprises are confused about the future market. If the market continues to be flat in July and August, some textile enterprises still have the intention to start down. Cotton prices in India's domestic market are much higher than international prices, so the production costs of Indian mills are still high. India imported cotton yarn for the first time this year to ensure domestic supply as it is about 30 rupees / kg cheaper than local yarn.
