New Delhi [India], November 12 (ANI): India's Textile & Apparel, including handicrafts exports, demonstrated remarkable resilience in the first half of FY 2025-26 despite global headwinds and tariff-related challenges in major markets.
India's global exports of textiles, apparel and made-ups grew marginally by 0.1% during April-September 2025, compared to the corresponding period in 2024.
According to the release, some of the large export markets for India, which clocked impressive growth rates, were the UAE (14.5%), the UK (1.5%), Japan (19.0%), Germany (2.9%), Spain (9.0%) and France (9.2%). On the other hand, some of the other markets that recorded higher growth rates were Egypt (27%), Saudi Arabia (12.5%), Hong Kong (69%), etc.
These 111 markets contributed USD 8,489.08 million during April-September 2025, compared to USD 7,718.55 million in the previous year--reflecting a 10% growth and an absolute increase of USD 770.3 million.
The key sectors driving this growth included Ready-Made Garments (RMG) of all Textiles, with a 3.42% growth, and Jute, with a 5.56% growth.
This performance highlights the sector's adaptability and competitiveness in the face of global uncertainties.
India's continued expansion into non-traditional markets reinforces the Government's policy focus on export diversification, value addition, and global market integration under the 'Make in India' and 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' initiatives. (ANI)
