Cotton price surge lifts yarn rates sharply in South India

Cotton yarn prices rose sharply across South India as cotton costs surged, prompting mills to hike rates by ₹5-10 per kg in Tiruppur and ₹5-8 per kg in Mumbai.
Tight supplies and strong export demand, now up to 60 per cent of output, supported prices.
Higher CCI base rates and firm global prices also lifted domestic cotton, reinforcing market strength.
