Serving the Trade for Eight Glorious Years

For the past eight successful years, Gujcot has been dedicated to serving the cotton trade community by providing timely, data-driven insights and valuable market intelligence. Each year, our Annual Report presents a comprehensive compilation of statistics, analytical graphs, and expert articles addressing current issues that impact the cotton industry.

The report includes detailed comparative data on All India cotton area, production, and yield, along with international indices comparisons and basis charts and tables that highlight global market movements. It also features five-year trends of India’s cotton exports and imports, offering valuable insights into trade patterns and competitiveness.

This year’s edition also covers several key current topics, such as:

• The strategic move of duty-free cotton imports in the first quarter as a wise step to counter the U.S. tariff impact.

• The continuing decline in area under cotton despite the Minimum Support Price (MSP) regime, and the challenge of maintaining Indian cotton’s price competitiveness against rival origins.

• The growing market share shift from cotton to man-made fibers (MMF) and a fact-based article that addresses and counters the myths behind this trend.

• A thorough outlook on the Indian spinning industry, assessing both challenges and emerging opportunities.

We believe this comprehensive data analysis, combined with thoughtful commentary on current industry issues, will prove highly useful for traders, mills, and policymakers alike. Our goal remains to support informed decision-making and strengthen India’s position in the global cotton value chain.
