What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Textile associations from South Gujarat raised concerns about yarn pricing, rising electricity costs, power outages, and labor compliance challenges at a meeting convened by the Southern Gujarat Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Participants noted that global crude oil price volatility affects raw materials like polyester and production costs. They also highlighted higher electricity costs following an increase of Rs 0.15 per unit in the Fuel and Power Purchase Price Adjustment (FPPPA) rate.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The issues affect micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the region. Industry representatives argued that yarn rates increase quickly when crude prices rise but do not decrease proportionately when prices fall. Frequent power cuts by Dakshin Gujarat Vij Company Ltd (DGVCL) lead to idle machinery, lower production, and financial losses.
