On the other hand, spinning mills reduce sales to maintain yarn prices. The price of cotton yarn in Delhi market has increased by US$3-5 per kilogram. Meanwhile, cotton yarn prices are stable in Ludhiana market. Trade sources revealed that the recent surge in cotton prices has led to higher demand for yarn exports from China, which is having a positive impact on the market.
The price of cotton yarn in the Delhi market increased by US$3-5 per kilogram, of which the price of combed yarn increased while the price of carded yarn remained stable. A trader in the Delhi market said: “The market has noticed an increase in buying, which supports yarn prices.

In the Panipat recycled yarn market, the price of combed cotton yarn increased by 5-6 rupees to 130-132 rupees per kg. In the past few days, combed prices have increased by Rs 10-12 per kg from a low of Rs 120 per kg. The reason for the price increase can be attributed to limited supply and rising cotton prices. Despite these changes, recycled yarn prices have remained stable without significant fluctuations.
