India plays catch-up in textiles
Article Abstract:
The end of textile quotas has seen modest revenue gains for India, hindered by strict labor laws. Clothing exports to the United States and the European Union from China jumped 59 percent to $7.5 billion last year, while India's textile exports increased just five percent to $2 billion. Currently, through to the end of July 2005, textile exports from India are increasing by 29 percent.
