INDUSTRY PROFILE

INTRODUCTION
The Textile Sector in India ranks next only to Agriculture. It accounts for
20 per cent of the country's industrial output and 30% of the foreign exchange
earnings. About 16 per cent of the country's work force is employed in this sector.
But presently, the Indian textile industry stands at the cross-roads. It is facing
challenges and exciting opportunities at the same time, following a focus thrust on
this sector in the planning process, economic liberalization and globalization of
trade. It can either flourish or perish.
Man-Made Fiber
Till the early seventies, the Indian man-made fiber textile industry was
minuscular. Fiber flexibility introduced by the Government's Textile Policy of
1985 has, however, helped man-made fibers to grow rapidly in the last two
decades. Falling input prices and easy of maintenance have popularized man-made
and blended fabrics among the common masses.
They are also increasingly being used in industrial applications. India's man-
made textile industry is capable of expansion in terms of raw material base and
yarn and fabric conversion facilities.
Today, it accounts for almost 32 per cent of the fiber/yarn base. Given the Indian
advantages of lower production costs, dominance of medium-sized units capable of
catering to a small lot and volume orders, large domestic consumption which could
neutralize adverse effects of overseas demand fluctuations and decline in
production in the developed countries, the Indian synthetic textile producers have
an edge.
Spinning and Weaving
Spinning is the conversion of fibers into yarn. These fibers can be
natural fibers (cotton) or manmade fibers. Spinning also entails production of
manmade filament yarn (yarn that is not made from fibers).Final product of
spinning is yarn. Cotton value chain starts from the ginning that adds value to it by
separating cotton from seed and impurities. Spinning is the foundation process and
all the subsequent value additions i.e., weaving, knitting, processing, garments and
made ups, depend upon it. Any variation in quality of spinning product directly
affects the entire value chain.
Since 1947, the mill sector loom age has declined from two lakh to 1.33 lakh,
while that of the power looms has grown from 24,000 to almost 14 lakh. Now the
mill sector accounts for only six per cent of cloth production, while the
unorganized /decentralized power loom, hosiery and handloom sectors account for
54.17 per cent and 23 per cent respectively. But the power loom sector suffers
from serious technological infirmities, leading to the production of low-value
items, including downstream garments. Though the per capita cloth production
(inclusive of exports) and per capita cloth availability are on the incline (22.92 to
34.82 sq. mtr. in 1985-86 and 1995-96 and 21 to 27.99 sq.mtr during this period
respectively), meeting the cloth requirements of India's teeming millions, its poor
quality acts as dampener on increasing our export market share. For this, a
Technology Up gradation Fund Scheme is being mounted during the Ninth Plan.
Upgrading technology level in the weaving sector by installing shuttle less or
automatic looms and related accessories would ensure productivity enhancement
and production of defect-free fabrics with value addition.
Processing
Processing and finishing are the weakest links in the Indian textile industry
today. A conscious drive has been initiated to upgrade it by incentives in
investment to the high-tech processing machinery, strengthening testing
infrastructure by upgrading or setting up new laboratories, developing natural and
vegetable dyes for commercial scale application, providing support for eco-
friendly processing and other such measures. This would help improve the garment
quality, contributing to value addition and higher unit value realization in exports
and hence a larger market share
HISTORY OF TEXTILE INDUSTRY

India has been well known for textile goods since very ancient times. The
traditional textile industry of India was virtually decayed during the colonial
regime. However, the modern textile industry took birth in India in the early
nineteenth century when the first textile mill in the country was established at fort
gloster near Calcutta in 1818. The cotton textile industry, however, made its real
beginning in Bombay, in 1850s.

The first cotton textile mill of Bombay was established in 1854 by a Parsi
cotton merchant then engaged in overseas and internal trade. Indeed, the vast
majority of the early mills were the handiwork of Parsi merchants engaged in
yarn and cloth trade at home and Chinese and African markets.
The first cotton mill in Ahmadabad, which was eventually to emerge as a rival
centre to Bombay, was established in 1861. The spread of the textile industry to
Ahmadabad was largely due to the Gujarati trading class.
The cotton textile industry made rapid progress in the second half of the
nineteenth century and by the end of the century there were 178 cotton textile
mills; but during the year 1900 the cotton textile industry was in bad state due to
the great famine and a number of mills of Bombay and Ahmadabad were to be
closed down for long periods.
The two world wars and the Swadeshi movement provided great stimulus
to the Indian cotton textile industry. However, during the period 1922 to 1937
the industry was in doldrums and during this period a number of the Bombay
mills changed hands. The Second World War, during which textile import from
Japan completely stopped, however, brought about an unprecedented growth of
this industry. The number of mills increased from 178 with 4.05 lakh looms in
1901 to 249 mills with 13.35 lakh looms in 1921 and further to 396 mills with
over 20 lakh looms in 1941. By 1945 there were 417 mills employing 5.10 lakh
workers.
The cotton textile industry is rightly described as a Swadeshi industry
because it was developed with indigenous entrepreneurship and capital and in
the pre-independence era the Swadeshi movement stimulated demand.
The partition of the country at the time of independence affected the cotton
textile industry also. The Indian union got 409 out of the 423 textiles mills of the
undivided India. 14 mills and 22 per cent of the land under cotton cultivation
went to Pakistan. Omen mills were closed down for some time.

FUTURE PROSPECTS
The future outlook for the industry looks promising, rising income
levels in both urban and rural markets will ensure a rising market for the
cotton fabrics considered a basic need of new economic reforms (NER)
proper attention has been given to the development of the textiles industry in
the Tenth plan.
Total outlay on the development of textile industry as envisaged in
the tenth plan is fixed at Rs.1980 crore. The production targets envisaged in
the terminal year of the Tenth plan are 45,500 million sq meters of cloth 4,150
million kg of spun yarn and 1,450 million kg of manmade filament yarn. The
per capita availability of cloth would be 28.00 sq meters by 2012-2013 as
compared to 23.19 sq meters in 2008-09showing a growth of 3.19 percent.
The export target of textiles and apparel is placed at $32 billion by 2012-2013
and $50 billion by 2020.

INDIAS MAJOR COMPETITORS IN THE WORLD
To understand Indias position among other textile producing the industry
contributes 9% of GDP and 35% of foreign exchange earnings, Indias share in
global exports is only 3% compared to China 13.75% percent. In addition to
China, other developing countries are emerging as serious competitive threats to
India. Looking at export shares, Korea (6%) and Taiwan (5.5%) are ahead of
India, while Turkey (2.9%) has already caught up and others like Thailand (2.3%)
and Indonesia (2%) are not much further behind. The reason for this development
is the fact that India lags behind these countries in investment levels, technology,
quality and logistics. If India were competitive in some key segments it could
serve as a basis for building a modern industry, but there is no evidence of such
signs, except to some extent in the spinning industry.

PROBLEM FACED BY THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN INDIA
The cotton textile industry is dealing with some problems.
Sickness
Sickness is widespread in the cotton textile industry. After the engineering
industry, the cotton textile industry has the highest incidence of sickness. As
many as 125 sick units have been taken over by the Central Government.
Sickness is caused by various reasons like the problems mentioned below.
Obsolescence
The plant and machinery and technology employed by a number of units
are obsolete. The need today is to make the industry technologically up-to-date
rather than expand capacity as such. This need was foreseen quite some time
back and schemes for modernization of textile industry had been introduced.
The soft loan scheme was introduced a few years back and some units were able
to take advantage of the scheme and modernize their equipment. However, the
problem has not been fully tackled and it is of utmost importance that the whole
industry is technologically updated.
Government Regulations
Government regulations like the obligation to produced controlled cloth are
against the interest of the industry. During the last two decades the excessive
regulations exercised by the government on the mill sector has promoted
inefficiency in both production and management. This has also resulted in a
colossal waste of raw materials and productive facilities. For example, the mills
are not allowed to use filament yarn in warp in order to protect the interest of art
silk and power loom sector which use this yarn to cater to the affluent section of
society.
Low Yield and Fluctuation of Cotton Output
The cotton yield per hectare of land is very low in India. This results in
high cost and price.
Further, being largely dependent on the climatic factors, the total raw
cotton production is subject to wide fluctuation causing serious problems for the
mills in respect of the supply of this vital raw material.
Competition from Man-made Fibers
One of the serious challenges facing the cotton textile industry is the
competition from the man-made fibers and synthetics. These textures are
gradually replacing cotton textiles. This substitution has in fact been supported
by a number of people on the ground that it is not possible to increase
substantially the raw cotton production without affecting other Crops
particularly food crops.

Competition from other Countries
In the international market, India has been facing severe competition from
other countries like Taiwan, South Korea, China and Japan.
Labour Problems
The cotton textile industry is frequently plagued by labour problems. The
very long strike of the textile workers of Bombay caused losses amounting to
millions of rupees not only to the workers and industry but also to the nation in
terms of excise and other taxes and exports.

INVESTMENT
Investment is the key for Indian textiles to make rapid strides. The Vision
Statement prepared by the Indian Cotton Mills federation has projected that the
industry has the potential to reach a size of $85 billion by 2020 from the current
level of $ 36 billion. Further, the vision statement has estimated that textile
exports could touch $40 billion by 2020 from $ 11 billion in 2012.
In the process, Indias share in the global textile and clothing trade is
expected to double from three percent in 2012 to six percent by 2020.

To reach these this ambitious target, it is estimated that new investment to
the tune of Rs.1, 40,000 Crores will be needed in the next five years. After
analyzing the capacity and technology levels in various segments of textile
Industry and the need for modernization, funds required for various segments
have been below.





STRUCTURE
Unlike other major textile-producing countries, Indias textile industry is
comprised mostly of small-scale, nonintegrated spinning, weaving, finishing, and
apparel-making enterprises. This unique industry structure is primarily a legacy of
government policies that have promoted labor-intensive, small-scale operations
and discriminated against larger scale firms:



Composite Mills
Relatively large-scale mills that integrate spinning, weaving and,
sometimes, fabric finishing are common in other major textile-producing
Countries. In India, however, these types of mills now account for about only 3
percent of output in the textile sector.
Spinning
Spinning is the process of converting cotton or manmade fiber into yarn to
be used for weaving and knitting. Largely due to deregulation beginning in the
mid-1980s, spinning is the most consolidated and technically efficient sector in
Indias textile industry. Average plant size remains small, however, and technology
outdated, relative to other major producers. In 2002/03, Indias spinning sector
consisted of about 1,146 small-scale independent firms and 1,599 larger scale
independent units.

Weaving and Knitting
Weaving and knitting converts cotton, manmade, or blended yarns into
woven or knitted fabrics. Indias weaving and knitting sector remains highly
fragmented, small-scale, and labor-intensive. This sector consists of about 3.9
million handlooms, 380,000 power loom enterprises that operate about 1.7
million looms, and just 137,000 looms in the various composite mills. Power
looms are small firms, with an average loom capacity of four to five owned by
independent entrepreneurs or weavers. Modern shuttleless looms account for less
than 1 percent of loom capacity.

Fabric Finishing
Fabric finishing (also referred to as processing), which includes dyeing,
printing, and other cloth preparation prior to the manufacture of clothing, is also
dominated by a large number of independent, small scale enterprises. Overall,
about 2,300 processors are operating in India, including about 2,100 independent
units and 200 units that are integrated with spinning, weaving.
Growth
India has already completed more than 50 years of its independence. The
analysis of the growth pattern of different segment of the industry during the last
five decades of post independence era reveals that the growth of the industry
during the first two decades after the independence had been gradual, though lower
and growth had been considerably slower during the third decade. The growth
thereafter picked up significantly during the fourth decade in each and every
segment of the industry. The peak level of its growth has however been reached
during the fifth decade i.e., the last ten years and more particularly in the 90s. The
Textile Policy of 1985 and Economic Policy of 1991 focusing in the direction of
liberalization of economy and trade had in fact accelerated the growth in 1990s.
The spinning spearheaded the growth during this period and man-made fiber
industry in the organized sector and decentralized weaving sector.
SAFETY AND HEALTH ISSUES IN THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY
The textile industry consists of a number of units engaged in spinning,
weaving, dyeing, Safety and health issues in the textile industry. Printing,
finishing and a number of other processes that are required to convert fiber
into a finished fabric or garment. There are several safety and health issues
associated with the textile industry. This article aims at studying each of
these issues in relation to the US and Indian textile industries in detail, along
with the possible solutions for these problems.

The major safety and health issues in the textile industry can be stated as under:

1) Exposure to cotton dust
2) Exposure to chemicals
3) Exposure to noise
4) Ergonomic issues

Exposure to cotton dust
The workers engaged in the processing and spinning of cotton are exposed
to significant amounts of cotton dust. They are also exposed to particles of
pesticides and soil. Exposure to cotton dust and other particles leads to respiratory
disorders among the textile workers. The fatal disease of byssinosis, commonly
known as brown lung, is caused among people working in the textile industry on
account of excessive exposure to cotton dust.

The symptoms of this disease include tightening of the chest, coughing,
wheezing and shortness of breath.

In the year 1938 in USA, it was estimated that about 35000 people had
already been affected by the disease, while 100000 other people were at risk of
contracting it. Hence the Occupational Safety and Health Administration i.e.
OSHA made it compulsory for employers in the textile industry to protect their
workers from over exposure to cotton dust and its evil effects. The OSHA
determined certain guidelines which are applicable to all private employers in the
US textile industry.

OSHA has laid down a Cotton Dust Standard with a view to reducing the
exposure of the workers to cotton dust and protecting them from the risk of
byssinosis. It has set up Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) for cotton dust for
different operations in the textile industry. This standard has helped bring down the
rate of occurrence of byssinosis significantly. Different states might adopt different
standards for occupational safety and health; however, in those states where there
are no standards fixed by the State, the Federal standards are accepted.

For an eight-hour day, the OSHA Cotton standard has been determined
at 200 micrograms of cotton dust per cubic meter of air in case of yarn
manufacturing, 500 micrograms in case of textile waste houses, 750 micrograms in
case of weaving operations, and 1000 micrograms in case of for waste recycling.
Employers are required to measure the quantity of respirable cotton dust once in 6
months or whenever there is any change that might lead to a change in the level of
dust. If the level of dust in the atmosphere is higher than that as per OSHA
guidelines, the management should take measures to reduce the same. As per these
guidelines, the employer is required to inform the employees in writing of the dust
level present in the atmosphere as well as the steps that the management is
planning to take for its reduction. If the dust level cannot be reduced, it is the duty
of the management to provide respirators to the employees.
The OSHA Cotton Dust Standard was amended in the year 2000, which
exempted a method of washing cotton from the rule.

A study conducted by R. Steinberg, J. Hannak and K. Balakrishnan
regarding textile units in India revealed that pulmonary function in textile workers
decreased significantly with exposure to cotton dust over a long period of time.
Another study conducted on textile units in Mumbai, India indicated an 11-33%
incidence of chronic bronchitis in textile workers. Another study revealed an
increase in the rate of occurrence with an increase in exposure to cotton dust.
Studies have revealed that acute respiratory diseases are more common among the
children working in carpet weaving units in Jaipur as compared to other children in
the same city. The prevalence of respiratory diseases among child textile workers
was 26.4%, while it was 15.2% among other children. Experts believe that this is
on account of high exposure to cotton dust.

Exposure to chemicals

Workers in the textile industry are also exposed to a number of chemicals,
especially those engaged in the activities of dyeing, printing and finishing.
Chemicals based on benzidine, optical brighteners, solvents and fixatives, crease-
resistance agents releasing formaldehyde, flame retardants that include
organophosphorus and organobromine compounds and antimicrobial agents are
used in textile operations.
Studies have revealed links between exposure to formaldehyde and nasal and
lung cancer as well as to brain cancer and leukemia, which can be fatal. In the long
run, exposure to formaldehyde could lead to respiratory difficulty and eczema.
Contact of the chemicals with skin as well as inhalation of the chemicals can lead
to several serious health effects.
A study conducted in USA revealed a correlation between the presence of
cancer of the buccal cavity and pharynx and occupation in the textile industry.
Another study revealed that textile workers were at high risk for developing cancer
of the stomach while another study indicated a low degree of correlation between
oesophageal cancer and working in the textile industry. Moreover, a high degree of
colorectal cancer, thyroid cancer, testicular cancer and nasal cancer was among
textile workers. Also, a relationship between the presence of non-Hodgkin's
lymphoma and working in the textile industry was observed.

As per a study conducted on 1300 people working in 'tie and dye' units in
Jodhpur and neighbouring areas, 100 workers were observed to have occupation-
related dermatitis. This constituted 7.69% of the total sample. Red RC base and
naphthol were observed to be the most common culprits in this regard.

Exposure to noise

High levels of noise have been observed in most of the units engaged in
the textile industry, particularly those in developing countries. In the long run,
exposure to high noise levels has been known to damage the eardrum and cause
hearing loss. Other problems like fatigue, absenteeism, annoyance, anxiety,
reduction in efficiency, changes in pulse rate and blood pressure as well as sleep
disorders have also been noted on account of continuous exposure to noise. Lack
of efficient maintenance of machinery is one of the major reasons behind the noise
pollution in a majority of the units. Though it causes serious health effects,
exposure to noise is often ignored by textile units because its effects are not
immediately visible and there is an absence of pain.
A study of 77 employees in textile mills in Nagpur was conducted by Ruikar
MM, Motghare DD and VasudeoND. This study revealed that 76.6% of the
employees were at risk for developing noise-induced hearing loss. The study of
Indian textile units by R. Steinberg, J. Hannak and K. Balakrishnan indicated that
21.3% of the workers studied suffered from noise-induced hearing loss.

POLICY OF GOVERNMENT OF INDIA TOWARDS SPINNING
INDUSTRY

The Cotton production policies in India historically have been
oriented toward promoting and supporting the textile industry. The Government Of
India announces a minimum support price for each variety of seed cotton (kapas)
based on recommendations from the Commission for Agricultural Costs and
Prices. The Government Of India is also providing subsidies to the production
inputs of the cotton in the areas of fertilizer, power, etc

PROCESS

The cotton is first brought from the various areas in Guntur district.
After bringing the cotton, the process is started.
The starting point is the MIXING: In this the waste materials such as seeds
of cotton and dust are removed. Then the plane cotton is obtained.
This cotton is sent into the 2 blow rooms to store it.
After that the cotton is sent into the MBO and Flexi cleaner machines for
final cleaning and sent that cotton from pipes to next department.
The CARDING DEPARTMENT, the sliver is formed.
The DRAWING SECTION is next department. In this section 12 cans are
present ,those are divided into6-6 on either side differ in countings.
The next stage is BRAKER STAGE; in this the quality of the sliver
improves.
Next the sliver is sent to the FINISHING STAGE, in this again 4-4 cans
division is present differ in countings and material.
The GROVING STAGE comes next in which the sliver is simplified into
thread form.
To these machines the air cleaning machine is present to clean the waste
present on the machines.
The RING FRAME THREAD MACHINE is the oldest process machine of
preparing tread.
The latest process machine of preparing thread is the LR60 and LR6.
In LR60-the man power is low
In LR6-the man power is high.

CHEESE WINDING is another stage, in this 2 singles are formed into 1
double.
The TFO, the weights are fix and sent to the market.
And in this process, the exhaust panels are present on the floor at every
machine, to exhaust the extra waste outside.
AUTO CORNERS, the weighting is fixing.
Later the TEXTILE RING FRAMES, it is same as the process of LR
process, used for doubling thread but these are not sent for market.
DOUBLING and CONE WINDING machines are used for preparing yarn
for export.
FINISHING, in this stage the yarns that prepared are stored in rooms based
on their counts weights-50, 40.
PACKING SECTION-At last the yarns are packed and sent for market
COOLERS:-The coolers are present in company at machines to maintain
the climate that is exact opposite to outside climate. To maintain these
coolers the compressors are present.
The total process is done based on air machines because the machines
