Apparel is one of the basic necessities of human civilization along with food, water and shelter. The Apparel Industry reflects people’s lifestyles and shows their social and economic status. The Apparel and Textile industry, is India’s second largest industry after the IT Industry. At present, it is amongst the fastest growing industry segment and is also the second largest foreign exchange earner for the country. The apparel industry accounts for 26% of all Indian exports. The Indian government has targeted the apparel and textiles industry segments to reach $50 billion by the year 2015. China on the other hand, has already reached their target of $52 billion in 2004, and therefore, it is very possible for India to reach its target soon.

One of the most interesting features of the apparel industry is that, it migrates from high cost nations to the low cost nations. The growth of the domestic market for clothing in India is linked with the success of the retailing sector. India presently has entered the second phase of growth and is witnessing a massive rise in the domestic demand. This is primarily due to the rise in the standard of living caused by the rise in the middle-income groups. In our present economic world of demand and supply, price and quality are the key factors, which determine the success of any business. The key element here though, is the cost of labour. India and China have a comparative advantage in this industry through their vast labor forces and the relatively low cost of labour.

The garments industry in India is one of the best in the world. An extremely well organized sector, garment manufacturers, exporters, suppliers,stockists and wholesalers are the gateway to an extremely enterprising clothing and apparel industry in India. There are numerous garments exporters, garments manufacturers, readymade garments exporters etc. both in the small scale as well as large scale sectors.

During April-December 1999-2000, textile exports were recorded as US $ 9735.2 million (Rs.440179.4 million), of which readymade garments comprised nearly 40%. Interestingly, almost a quarter of India's total exports goes to the USA.

Indian readymade garments and textiles are extremely popular the world over. In fact, exports of readymade garments registered a 6.4% increase in dollar terms and a 11.6% increase in rupee terms during the period April-December 1999-2000, despite a sluggish growth in income both at home and abroad. Indian Garment export growth during April-June 1998 for woolen readymade garments was a phenomenal 150%, for readymade garments made of silk it was 58%, and for other readymade garments it was 39%, in dollar terms.

Today, garments exports from India have made inroads into the international market for their durability, quality and beauty. One of the reasons for the economical pricing of India's ready made garments and apparels is the availability of highly skilled, cheap labour in the country. The superiority of India's Garment Industry has been acknowledged in the National Textile Policy (NTP) of India 2000. Having realized the tremendous growth potential of this sector there is a proposal in the NTP for taking the Indian Garment Industry out of the SSI reservation list.
