Globally, the demand for textile products like garments, fabrics, and home textiles reached a peak in 2022. However, economic uncertainty, geopolitical unrest, and the after-effects of COVID-19 dented demand last year. A similar trend was noticed in India’s fabric exports to South and South-East Asian nations in recent years.

As per TexPro, India’s fabric shipments topped at $906.024 million in 2022 but eased to $680.067 million in 2023. Exports to Sri Lanka also peaked at $576.980 million in 2022 but slipped to $480.080 million in the following year.

In 2022, the outbound shipment to Thailand was $93.969 million, to Indonesia $99.442 million, to Cambodia $20.029 million, to Myanmar $11.702 million, and to the Philippines $1.166 million.

In 2023, India’s fabric exports to Thailand were $88.617 million, to Indonesia $79.626 million, to Cambodia $14.821 million, to Myanmar $6.911 million, and to the Philippines $3.580 million.
