Rapid decline in spinners’ profits
The spot price of Indian cotton also declined from Rs 39,400/maund at the start of Chinese New Year holiday to Rs 37,100/maund. Although this reduction was a result of depreciation of Indian rupees, profits of Indian spinners also declined rapidly. Based on the one-month and two-month cotton stocks, these spinners suffered losses about 10cents/kg.
