The Indian textile and apparel industry is projected to grow to USD 141 billion by 2021 from USD 58 billion in 2011, driven by increasing domestic demand, policy support, and favorable demographics. The sector is expected to see significant growth in both production and exports, with apparel demand anticipated to rise to USD 122 billion by 2017. The government's investment and policy initiatives, including 100% FDI in the textile sector and technology upgradation schemes, are set to enhance growth and competitiveness in this industry.
