Textile mills in the Manchester of South India are taking desperate measures like reducing production and raising prices of hosiery yarn as the cotton prices that starting soaring in October are unlikely to come down until the next season according to India Ratings and Research. As a result, textile mills in the state, which account for 46% of the spinning capacity in the country, preferred to bring down production by 15% to 20%, to at least cut their losses.
