India’s denim industry has evolved from a domestic manufacturing base into a major force in the global denim economy. With capacity exceeding 1,600 million metres annually and strong export linkages, the sector now stands at a new inflection point where sustainability, value addition, and market diversification will shape its next phase of growth.
From pre-pandemic exports a little under 2% of its total revenues to gunning for a 15-20% growth this fiscal, the Ahmedabad-based Chiripal Group, is on an expansion drive as it looks to augment its overall denim capacity to 240 MMPA.
