INTRODUCTION
The textile industry, which is the single largest industry in India and accounts for 31.1 per cent of the total value of exports, is not able to meet its full potential because of fragmentation of the industry and the use of obsolete and old technologies. This erosion of competitiveness has been overcome by a few players and groups by organising themselves along modern lines.
In this study, which gives an outline of the structure of the Indian textile industry, its contribution to exports, major players, problems of the supply chain, the textile policy of the government, spells out steps needed for internationalisation, it becomes evident that the Indian textile industry needs technical and financial support from outside.
In Tirupur which has become the knitwear capital of India, much of the industry in the cluster propelled by SMEs, has modernised but much remains to be upgraded.
