It is more than what meets the eye what minister alluded recently and we Quote:
“This will also not hurt our cotton producers… I can see before my eyes a huge requirement for more cotton and a huge and promising future for our cotton,” Goyal said at the ET NOW Global Business Summit.
India stays competitive
Explaining the framework, he reiterated that India will get the same concession that Bangladesh enjoys. “The same concession is available to India also to allay the concerns/fears. It’s called a yarn forward. If you buy cotton or yarn from the US and process it and use it for making apparel/clothing, you are able to export it to the US at zero duty. That’s an established principle of theirs. And India stands to gain from the same way of working,” he said emphatically.
