“Due to increase in COVID-19 cases, mills are now in a mode of wait and watch. India has a big unsold stock of around 160 lakh bales with farmers, ginners, exporters, traders, MNCs and government agencies. So in India, we have a very comfortable situation as far as stock is concerned,” he said.

“In yarn prices, we have seen the correction, it has reduced to Rs 15-20 per kilogram and this month no increase has been seen,” he added.
