Abstract:
Value addition through textile industry plays a vital role to limit poverty going out of proportion by promoting exports in the wake of dynamically changing global scenario and declining prices for primary commodities. The value addition through yarn and thread, cloth and ready made garments accounts for a major share of cotton-based export value, while textile made-ups, furnishing items, tarpaulin and canvas, and bags and sacks have an edge in export prices and require adjustments in production and export quantum. This study was carried out to rationalize a methodology for data compilation and framework for analysis followed by empirical analysis. A summary of salient observations is finally considered for policy recommendations.
