Insights

  • North India's cotton yarn market stayed stable as weak domestic demand and tight liquidity offset higher cotton prices. A softer rupee supported export orders, mainly from China, helping mills hold rates. Panipat saw costlier comber and cheaper recycled polyester, while limited cotton arrivals and strong buying by Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) kept fibre prices firm.

Cotton yarn prices in Ludhiana also held firm, with domestic demand still sluggish and liquidity concerns limiting transactions.
