A trader told Fibre2Fashion, “PC Yarn prices gained ₹5-15 per kg because mills’ costing was increasing. Spinning mills are increasing yarn prices as cotton is still touching new highs. The demand from downstream industry was average. However, shifting of consumption from pure cotton to polyester-cotton may support market sentiments. Many garment brands and unbranded manufacturers have shifted to PC yarn because cotton yarn’s record high prices are unbearable for the entire value chain.”

In Ludhiana market, 30 count PC combed yarn (48/52) was sold at ₹305-320 per kg (GST inclusive), according to Fibre2Fashion’s market insight tool TexPro. 30 count PC carded yarn (65/35) was priced at ₹280-290 per kg. 20 count PC (recycled-O/E) PSF yarn (40/60) was traded at ₹200-205 per kg. 30 count poly spun yarn was sold at ₹190-200 per kg, while recycled 30 count poly spun yarn at ₹175-185 per kg. Acrylic NM (2/48) was priced at ₹330-340 per kg, whereas acrylic NM (2/32) was at ₹280-290 per kg.

The price of PSF remained unchanged at ₹123 per kg. Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) has fixed prices of raw material as: PTA ₹92.40 per kg (up ₹0.50) and MEG ₹61.30 per kg (up ₹0.50) and MELT at ₹106.20 per kg, as per TexPro.
