Zepto has filed an updated DRHP with SEBI for a proposed US$1 billion (₹9,500 crore) IPO. The offering comprises a fresh issue of ₹8,010 crore and an OFS of 113 million shares by existing investors.

The export performance was achieved despite tariff-related challenges in the United States and disruptions caused by the ongoing West Asia crisis.

Industry leaders said the global challenges affected trade flows and shipping movements across key export markets.

Tiruppur remains one of India’s most important ready-made garment manufacturing and export clusters, serving major international markets.

The cluster produces a wide range of products including T-shirts, sportswear, innerwear, children’s wear and fashion knitwear.

Tiruppur Exporters Association President K.M. Subramanian said the export achievement reflected the strength and adaptability of the region’s garment industry.

He highlighted Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) as a key opportunity to enhance the competitiveness of Indian garment exports.

Subramanian also pointed to rising export orders, growing demand for Man-Made Fibre (MMF) garments and a strong industry focus on sustainability as future growth drivers.

Tamil Nadu accounts for approximately 27% of India’s textile exports and around one-quarter of the country’s total textile production.

The report found that fuel expenditure in the textile sector increased by nearly 47% between FY ‘21 and FY ‘24, while fuel cost intensity rose by about 17%.

India’s textile industry currently has the highest carbon footprint among major textile-exporting countries, with emissions exceeding 12.5 kg CO2e per kilogram of textile produced.

Climate Risk Horizons recommended policy reforms, improved renewable energy access, concessional financing and grid infrastructure upgrades to support decarbonisation.

The study concluded that decarbonisation can help the textile sector reduce costs, improve margins and strengthen export competitiveness in an increasingly sustainability-focused global market.

A Gujarat High Court stay order has disrupted Surat’s textile sector, leaving nearly 1,000 containers of imported specialty yarn stranded at Mumbai’s Nhava Sheva Port and Surat’s Hazira Port.

The issue stems from a Central Government notification issued on 11th November that permitted the import of specialty yarn to support the domestic textile industry.

Following the notification, Surat-based traders placed orders with overseas suppliers and completed advance payments and other import-related banking formalities.

The imports were halted after five major spinning companies challenged the notification in the Gujarat High Court, resulting in a stay order and Customs authorities suspending the release of consignments.

Traders have argued that the stay order was issued without hearing the views of weavers and importers, despite them being among the stakeholders most affected by the decision.

The detained shipments consist of high-quality specialty yarn imported from China, Vietnam and Indonesia for use in Surat’s textile and garment manufacturing sector.
