Textile mills in the southern region for the last six months are hit due to the market slowing down for yarn and prices remaining low, compared to the production cost. Further, textile units in the State also had to pay higher value added tax (five percent) compared to central sales tax (two percent) according to the South India Spinners’ Association.
