State-wise CCI Cotton Sales Details – 2024-25 SeasonThe Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) made no changes in per candy price this week. Following the price revision, CCI sold approximately 2,95,500 bales during the week, bringing the total cotton bales sales for the 2024-25 season to approximately 88,18,100 bales. This represents around 88.18% of the total cotton procured so far this season.A state-wise breakdown of sales indicates strong activity from Maharashtra, Telangana, and Gujarat, which together account for over 85.31% of the total sales to date.This data underscores CCI’s proactive efforts in stabilizing the cotton market and ensuring steady supply across key cotton-producing states.
Lack of irrigation water in the canals in April-May delayed cotton and cotton sowing.Upper Rajasthan: Due to a shortage of irrigation water in the Sri Ganganagar canals, farmers were unable to sow cotton and cotton as targeted in April-May this year.Despite the monsoon season, the state's share of water in the Ganga Canal from Punjab is not being fully supplied. The monsoon has retreated, and there is little chance of rain in the region. These days, the maximum temperature is hovering above 38 degrees Celsius. Due to the lack of adequate irrigation water in the canals in April-May, cotton and cotton sowing has been affected and failed to meet targets.The district's target for sowing indigenous cotton was 1,400 hectares, American cotton 5,000 hectares, and Bt cotton 170,000 hectares.Conversely, due to the lack of irrigation water, only 783 hectares of indigenous cotton, 1,013 hectares of American cotton, and 147,000 hectares of Bt cotton were sown. This month, the state's share of water in Ganga Canal till September 20 is 2500 cusecs, but only around 1500 cusecs of water is available in Ganga Canal at Khakhan Head on the Rajasthan border.read more :- Cotton prices remained stable despite market equilibrium.
Cotton prices remain unusually stable amid market equilibriumWhile other commodity prices have seen significant fluctuations throughout the year, cotton has maintained remarkable stability.Since January, cotton prices have consistently traded within a narrow range of 65 to 69 US cents per pound, a stark contrast to the volatility seen in other commodity markets.(SIS)This week, cotton's historical volatility reached multi-year lows, underscoring the current calm.According to Commerzbank AG, the difference between the monthly high and low in September was just 2 US cents.This trend of limited price movement was also seen in July and August.During the first half of the year, the typical monthly trading range was 4-5 US cents, with April being the only exception at 9 US cents.(SIS)The German bank noted in an update on Friday that the brief spike in volatility in April stemmed from a temporary drop in prices to just over 60 US cents following US President Donald Trump's announcement of reciprocal tariffs.“The decline in price volatility began last year, when prices peaked at nearly 100 US cents per pound in the first quarter of 2024,” said Commerzbank commodity analyst Karsten Fritsch in the update.Market balance is a key factorThe current stability in cotton prices can largely be attributed to the near-equilibrium state of the market since last year.For the current 2025-26 crop year, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) projects a modest supply deficit of 250,000 tons.This is based on an estimated supply of 25.62 million tons and demand of 25.87 million tons.(SIS)The previous crop year saw an even smaller gap between supply and demand, with a modest supply surplus.*This year, the US cotton crop is projected to be 8% smaller... A decline is expected, resulting from significantly reduced acreage and lower yields.(SIS)However, the low abandonment rate (the difference between planted and harvested acreage) has helped to limit the overall reduction in crop volume, Fritsch said.Due to the smaller crop and a modest increase in exports, US cotton stocks at the end of the crop year are expected to be slightly lower than at the beginning.China's Dominance and the Impact of Trade DisputesChina has a significant influence on the global cotton market, ranking first in both supply and demand, ahead of India.Since China consumes more cotton than it produces, it relies on imports.These imports saw a notable decline in the previous crop year, and according to USDA forecasts, no significant increase is expected this year.(SIS)Brazil, which surpassed the US as the largest cotton exporter two years ago, can easily meet China's import needs on its own."This is why the trade dispute will play a smaller role for cotton than for many other agricultural commodities," Fritsch said.It is clear that this stability in cotton prices will not last forever.While the current stability in cotton prices is not expected to last indefinitely, what will ultimately disrupt this equilibrium remains unclear.(SIS)However, it is not entirely clear what could push prices out of their comfortable range.Cotton prices have been unusually stable since January, trading between 65 and 69 US cents per pound.This stability is due to a near-balance in the market, with a slight shortage in supply projected for 2025-26.China's dominant role and Brazil's export capacity suggest that trade disputes will have a limited impact on prices.(SIS)read more:- CCI sells 88% of cotton through e-auction, weekly sales at 2.95 lakh bales

CAI President Interview on CNBC Bazar (Gujarati), Dated 19.09.2025Q1. What is the reason ICE futures are range-bound between 64 to 69 cents?Ans.: Since last year, ICE futures have been range-bound between 64 to 70 cents. The main reasons are :1. Brazil’s bumper crop of about 240 lakh bales (Indian 170 kg standard). Brazil is offering cotton at 4 to 6 cents lower than the U.S.2. China is producing its largest cotton crop in the last 12 years and has stopped importing U.S. cotton.These two factors are exerting pressure on ICE futures and preventing any upward movement. Until ICE futures cross 75 cents, we will not see a significant rise in Indian or global cotton markets.Q2. What is the outlook for Indian cotton and the condition of the new crop?Ans.: Currently, Indian cotton prices are steady, ranging from ₹53,000 to ₹55,000 per candy, depending on quality. These rates are expected to remain stable for some time, and an upward trend is unlikely in the near term.On 30th September 2025, India will have record closing stocks of 60–65 lakh bales — the highest since the COVID year. The new season (starting 1st October) will therefore open with 60–65 lakh bales of old stock, equivalent to around 75 days of mill consumption.For the new crop, state associations estimate a 5–10% higher output compared to last season, mainly due to the widespread adoption of new “4G” technology seeds across major cotton-growing states. According to Gujarat experts, these seeds yield over 700 kg per hectare with 36–40% lint output.* Expected new crop (2025/26): 325–340 lakh bales (vs. 312 lakh last season)* Opening stock: 60–65 lakh bales* Imports expected: 40–50 lakh bales Thus, the total availability will be about 430 lakh bales. This surplus will put downward pressure on the market.Q3. Out of the 60–65 lakh bales carry-forward stock on 30th September, how much will be with CCI, traders, MNCs, and mills?Ans.: Currently, CCI holds 12–15 lakh bales of unsold stock, plus 20–25 lakh bales sold but not yet lifted. Out of this, about 15 lakh bales were sold in the last 15 days alone and remain unlifted. Therefore, by 30th September, CCI’s godowns will hold around 30–35 lakh bales, while mills will have another 30–35 lakh bales — making the total 60–65 lakh bales.This year, mills purchased heavily from CCI and also imported record quantities. By 30th September, mills are expected to have an average of 40–45 days’ stock in their godowns.Since the government has allowed duty-free imports until 31st December, mills have covered imports in large volumes, especially lower-quality cotton at ₹48,000–₹51,000 (Indian port delivery). Around 20 lakh bales are expected to arrive at Indian ports between October and December.Q4. Should the government reconsider the duty-free import decision, as it could harm farmers?Ans.: Farmers are protected by higher MSP rates of ₹8,110 per quintal. Duty-free import was a long-pending demand of the textile industry, and its approval addresses that need.Q5. Why are Indian mills importing such large quantities despite sufficient domestic stock?Ans.: There are two main reasons: 1. Imported cotton, especially Brazilian, is cheaper than Indian cotton.2. CCI procures over 100 lakh bales between October and April but withholds selling immediately, storing it for 8–9 months. Mills requiring continuous supply therefore turn to imports.For the next season, contracts for about 20 lakh bales (October–December shipment) are already in place. Overall, imports could reach 40–50 lakh bales. With this plus higher domestic production and record opening stock, India may see more than 100 lakh bales of carryover stock on 30th September 2026 — the highest ever.Q6. The government recently reduced GST on man-made fibres from 18% to 5%. How much shift do you expect from cotton to man-made fibre?Ans.: This 13% tax advantage will boost demand for man-made fibres. As per Grasim (Birla), sales of viscose and other fibres are expected to rise by 5–7% in the coming year. Consequently, Indian cotton consumption could decline by 15–20 lakh bales.For 2025–26, overall cotton consumption may fall from 315 lakh bales to about 290 lakh bales, mainly due to the GST reduction on man-made fibres and the 50% U.S. tariff.read more :- INR Gains 12 Paise, Closes at 88.10 per Dollar

The mandatory Girdawari (land survey) requirement for registration to sell cotton at MSP has been achieved to date, but the result is not a single registration on the portal in 17 days.Piles of cotton piled up on the bales at Hanumangarh Junction Mandi. | Hanumangarh: For the first time, the CCI has implemented online registration for cotton purchases at the Minimum Support Price (MSP). The 'Kapas Kisan' app has been launched for this purpose on September 1st.After the Girdawari (land survey) is 100% complete, the report will be certified and uploaded. Only then will farmers be able to obtain the Girdawari report from the Patwari or online. The complete Girdawari is unlikely to be completed before October 15th. Consequently, government cotton procurement will also be delayed. The Agricultural Marketing Department has written to the CCI requesting the removal of the Girdawari requirement at the time of registration. Despite this, the CCI has not issued any orders in this regard. The FCI also purchases wheat at the support price based on online registration, but a survey is not required during registration.When farmers bring their produce to the market, the survey is conducted and the purchase is made.However, the CCI has made it mandatory to upload the survey report at the time of registration. Consequently, registration will be delayed, and procurement will not begin on time. This will result in significant losses for farmers. This year, cotton has been sown on approximately 180,000 hectares in the district. The sown area is approximately 61,000 hectares more than last year. The crop is in good condition so far. Consequently, production is expected to be good. Cotton will arrive in the markets in October.If procurement at the support price does not begin on time, farmers will face difficulties. This time, the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) will procure at nine centers in the district. The CCI has written to the secretaries of the Agricultural Produce Market Committees of Hanumangarh Town, Junction, Goluwala, Pilibanga, Rawatsar, Bhadra, Nohar, Tibbi, and Sangaria, urging them to educate farmers about registering. However, due to the mandatory uploading of a Girdawari report, farmers are unable to register. CCI officials claim that online registration has been initiated for the convenience of farmers. After registration, farmers will be able to bring their produce to the market according to their slots. The Girdawari requirement is to harass farmers. The government does not want to purchase agricultural commodities at the support price. The government makes new rules every day, but does not consider the interests of farmers. Therefore, various obstacles are imposed. First, online registration was made mandatory for purchasing cotton. Now, Girdawari is being imposed. Farmers will not tolerate this.Surendra Sharma, farmer leader, Hanumangarh Deputy Director, said, "A letter has been written to the General Manager to remove the requirement of Girdawari (land survey) during registration. Girdawari is mandatory during registration on the Cotton App. Due to this, not a single registration has been made. A letter has been written to the General Manager of CCI to remove the requirement of Girdawari during registration." DL Kalwa, Deputy Director, Agricultural Marketing Department, Hanumangarh. The Central Government has increased the MSP of cotton by Rs. 589 per quintal, benefiting farmers. This time, the Central Government has increased the MSP of cotton by Rs. 589 per quintal. This time, the support price for medium-staple cotton has been set at Rs. 7710 per quintal, and the MSP for long-staple cotton has been set at Rs. 8110 per quintal. In recent years, Hanumangarh district has produced common staple cotton, between medium and long. When arrivals begin in the markets, the CCI determines the price by checking the length. Purchases are then made at that rate. Last year, the price of medium staple cotton was fixed at Rs 7121 per quintal and that of long staple at Rs 7521 per quintal. Due to low production last year, procurement could not be done at the support price.Traders only purchased the produce through open auction. The average market price during the season was Rs 6500 to 7000 per quintal. Guidelines from higher level, Girdawari is necessary for registration. Cotton producing farmers can register online on the Kapas Kisan App to sell their produce. Girdawari is necessary at the time of registration. Registration and procurement guidelines for cotton procurement are decided at higher level. Kewalkrishna Sharma, Quality Inspector, CCI
GST 2.0 Boosts Textile and Logistics SectorsNew Delhi : According to an official statement issued on Thursday, the rationalization of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) under GST 2.0 is a significant reform aimed at addressing structural anomalies, reducing costs, and boosting demand in the textile and logistics industries. Both of these are crucial for domestic growth, employment, and export competitiveness.By uniforming tax rates across the value chain, the GST reform ensures affordability for consumers, sustains employment in labor-intensive sectors, and enhances India's ability to compete globally. The statement states that in the textile sector, this rationalization strengthens the entire value chain—from fiber to apparel—by reducing distortions, improving apparel affordability, reviving retail demand, and boosting export competitiveness.The reduction in GST will make apparel more affordable for middle- and lower-income families, boosting domestic demand and having a significant impact in smaller towns and rural areas.The GST on readymade garments up to ₹2,500 is now 5%, making apparel more affordable and boosting domestic demand.Reducing the GST on man-made fibers and yarns from 12% and 18% to 5% removes the inverted duty structure and strengthens small and medium enterprises, while reducing the GST on carpets and other textile floor coverings from 12% to 5% will enhance global competitiveness, the statement said.Similarly, reducing the GST on commercial goods vehicles from 28% to 18% will reduce logistics costs and boost exports.GST reforms also extend to the transportation sector, which plays a key role in reducing logistics costs and promoting industrial growth. Trucks and delivery vans, which carry approximately 65-70% of India's freight traffic, benefit significantly from the tax rationalization. Cheaper freight transportation – Lower costs per tonne-km benefit the transportation of textiles, FMCG, and e-commerce deliveries.The cascading effect of lower logistics costs helps mitigate overall price pressures and reduce inflation. Furthermore, lower logistics costs make the Indian textile industry more competitive abroad.Rationalizing GST in the textile and logistics sectors is a decisive step towards strengthening India's manufacturing base, improving affordability, and boosting exports. By reducing structural imbalances and easing cost pressures, these reforms benefit consumers, small businesses, and exporters alike. The statement further stated that these reforms reinforce the vision of a globally competitive India, driven by resilient supply chains and a thriving textile sector.read more :- Tamil nadu : Mini textile park inaugurated in Karur

India's cotton production expected to increase in 2025-26 despite decline in key statesIndia's cotton production is projected to be higher than last year in the 2025-26 season, starting in October. However, crop acreage has declined in key states like Maharashtra and Gujarat, and heavy rains in August have damaged standing crops in some areas.Key State-wise Situation* Gujarat: Acreage decreased from 23.66 lakh hectares to 20.82 lakh hectares (12% decline).* Maharashtra: Acreage decreased from 40.81 lakh hectares to 38.44 lakh hectares.* Telangana: Acreage increased from 18.11 lakh hectares to 18.51 lakh hectares.* Karnataka: Acreage increased from 7.79 lakh hectares to 8.08 lakh hectares.* Andhra Pradesh: A slight decrease, from 4.13 lakh hectares to 3.77 lakh hectares.Production EstimatesAccording to trade associations, India's cotton production in 2025-26 could reach 32.5–34 million bales (each weighing 170 kg), up from 31.2 million bales in the current season.* Karnataka: Increase from 2.4 to 3 million bales (25% increase).* Andhra Pradesh: Increase from 1.25 to 1.7 million bales.* Telangana: Increase from 5.0 to 5.3–5.5 million bales.Total production in South India could reach 10.5 million bales, up from last year's 8.8 million bales, and offset the shortfall in other regions.Market ImpactCotton arrivals are expected to reach 30–35,000 bales per day by Dussehra, significantly higher than the current 10,000 bales. However, prices are under pressure due to increased production and imports.The government has removed the 11% import duty until the end of the year to support the textile industry. Due to this, imports have reached a record 4.1 million bales in 2024-25 (up from 1.5 million bales last year). Imports are expected to exceed 2 million bales in October-December alone.Raw cotton prices are trading below the MSP (₹5,500–7,000 per quintal). Recent rains in northern states have also affected fiber quality.CCI's RoleThe Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) has prepared for large-scale procurement at MSP. Operations will begin from October 1st through 550 centers in North India. CCI, which purchased 10 million bales last year, has a stock of 1.2 million bales this time.Global OutlookThe USDA estimates that India's production will increase, while imports will decrease to 3.58 million bales and exports will increase to 1.664 million bales.According to the ICAC, global production will decline from 25.9 million tons to 25.5 million tons.

Brazilian cotton prices fall as 2024-25 harvest nears completion Cotton prices in Brazil moved down in early September due to the progress of harvesting and processing activities of the 2024-25 season, which boosted the availability of batches and encouraged sellers to be more flexible about quotations. Decreases in dollar values abroad also reinforced the downward trend in the domestic market, as per the Centre for Advanced Studies on Applied Economics (CEPEA).Due to constant price drops, many sellers stayed away from closing trades in the spot market, preferring to accomplish term contracts, which were closed at more attractive values compared to current ones. Purchasers, in turn, were closing only a few deals.The CEPEA/ESALQ Index (payment in 8 days) decreased 6.05 per cent between August 29 and September 15, closing at BRL 3.6703 (~$0.69) per pound on September 15. On September 12, it closed at BRL 3.6590 per pound, the lowest value since early July 2023, in nominal terms (BRL 3.7047 per pound), CEPEA said in its latest fortnightly report on the Brazilian cotton market.According to data from Brazilian Cotton Growers Association (ABRAPA), 90.83 per cent of 2024-25 crops had been harvested and 30.65 per cent had been processed until September 4.International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) estimates the global area at 30.8 million hectares in 2025-26, for a decrease of 0.76 per cent compared to the previous crop. Productivity is expected to move up 1.4 per cent to 829.18 kilos per hectare, resulting in production at 25.55 million tons, up 0.63 per cent year-on-year. World consumption is likely to reach 25.519 million tons.In Brazil, production may increase 7.19 per cent to the record of 3.92 million tons in 2025-26, sustained by the higher area. Domestic consumption is likely to reach 752 thousand tons, up 0.27 per cent compared to the season before, the highest since 2014-15 (801 thousand tons).read more :- Rupee higher 02 Paise Against USD, Closes at 87.80
