In FY24, the AEPC foresees a 10-12% upswing in exports to the United States and an 8-10% increase in exports to Europe. 

These markets constitute a significant share of India's textile and apparel exports, and the strong demand emanating from these regions is poised to propel the overall export figures for the fiscal year.

Several other factors are poised to contribute to the expansion of India's textile and apparel exports in FY24:

• Government initiatives, including the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, aimed at bolstering the textile and apparel sector.
• The rising global appeal of Indian textile and apparel products.
• The increasing demand for sustainable and ethically-produced fashion items.

Overview

The AEPC's projection of $50 billion in textile and apparel exports for FY24 bodes well for the Indian economy. 

The textile and apparel sector serves as a major employment generator in India, and its growth is expected to create jobs and stimulate economic development.
