Findings•The sales trend of most of the respondents is increasing.
•Most of the companies are using the latest technologies from big companies like LMW, Rieter etc. they are buying the technologies wherever it is available. But that is on the individual basis but in the whole Indian textile sector lags behind from many countries in technology improvement.
•There are many hindrances which Ludhiana exporters face while exporting to neighboring countries like banking problems, logistics, and port problems.
•China is giving huge competition to Indian textile industry.
•Respondents said they are being affected by changing government policies and that reduces the export competiveness of Indian textile products in the export market.
•Most of the respondents said that the country is not yet competent to beat its competitors.
•Respondents said that strength of the Indian textile industry is skilled manpower and the weakness is lack of good infrastructure.
Conclusion
Expectations are high, prospects are bright, but capitalizing on the new emerging opportunities will be a challenge for textile companies. From the above study, it an be concluded that though Indian textile industry is competent enough yet it lacks in many faces like infrastructure, technology.
Suggestions•Imbibing global best practices
•Adopting rapidly changing technologies and efficient processes.
•Innovation
•The weak links in the Indian conventional industry such as weaving and finishing have to be strengthened
•Government should take steps to reduce the cost disadvantage of Indian T&C manufacturers.
•The logistics and supply chain management of Indian textile firms are relatively weak and needs improvement and efficiency.
