India’s textile industry can no longer attribute weak export performance to tariff disadvantages, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said, urging exporters to focus on competitiveness, scale, quality and reliability.

Speaking at a national workshop on ‘Leveraging FTAs: An Outreach Programme’ in New Delhi, Goyal said India’s trade position in major developed markets has improved significantly, with Indian goods now receiving tariff rates comparable to, or in some cases lower than, those faced by key competitors such as Bangladesh and Vietnam.

For years, Indian textile exporters faced higher duties in several markets, while Bangladesh benefited from its Least Developed Country status and Vietnam gained from a wide network of free trade agreements.

Goyal said recent Indian trade agreements have narrowed these gaps, reducing the tariff disadvantage faced by domestic exporters.
