INTRODUCTION
The Indian textile industry playsa significant role in the
country’s economy for its
contribution to the GrossDomestic Product (GDP),employment generation andearning foreign exchange. Thetextile industry contributessignificantly to the world textileproduction capacity and supplyof fibers. The Indian Spinningmachinery manufacturers havecreated a milestone in the year2007-08 with supply of over 3.5million spindles in the industry.
Constituents of Yarn SpinningManufacturing Cost
The raw material accounts for55
 – 
60% of the total yarnmanufacturing cost followed bypower cost, labor cost andinterest & other cost. Non-availability and increased costare the major reasons for the rawmaterial to constitute the largershare in the yarn manufacturingcost. The paucity andintermittent distribution of power is another majorchallenge facing the industry.Interest & Other 10-15%Labour 8-12%Power 12

The Indian textile industryis large and diverse,unique for its coverage of the entire gamut of activities ranging fromproduction of raw materialto providing theconsumers, high valueadded products, such asfabrics and garments.
Challenges Faced by theSpinning Sector
The challenges of theSpinning Industry whichwould impede the Growthand development of theIndustry are:
 
Raw materialavailability
 
Human resource
 
Power cost &availability
 
Investment &Interest cost, etc.

The cotton scenario in the country also presents a difficult picture withdecrease in carry forward stock for the upcoming year and decrease inacreage allotted for cotton production. This would lead to increase inprice of raw material which would subsequently lead to its increase inyarn manufacturing cost.
 
Raw Material vs.Yarn Quality
Modern developmentsin Spinning Machineryare mainly focused onthe key properties of afiber. Synthetics do notpose challenge as thefibers could becontrolled to a greatextent. However, thefollowing are the keyproperties of cottonfibers which determineyarn quality.
