The document discusses new developments and challenges in India's worsted textile industry. It notes that the industry is small but important for employment. It relies on imports for machinery and materials due to a lack of domestic R&D. The industry faces issues with inconsistent shades, poor fastness of dark colors especially in blends, and needing to meet demands for brighter shades and machine-washable all-wool fabrics. New applications of finishes also pose challenges around shade change and fastness that will require development of suitable colorants.
