Speaking on the expectations from Budget 2022 on the garment and textile sectors, Ranjana Rani, co-founder, Draax Fashions said: “The garment and textile sectors are labor-intensive, and both the sectors need to be looked different than other industries.

There are certain issues, which have been specific to this sector, and addressing them in a timely manner will help the entrepreneurs unlock their true potential. The garment industry is facing inflationary pressure with increase in prices of raw materials, packing, and freight.”

Simultaneously, other initiatives like providing soft loans for an initial couple of years for buying raw materials and the introduction of a bill discounting mechanism through government implementing agencies would go a long way to help the sector.

In short, access to affordable funds at minimal collateral would be the key for the industry to flourish, she added.
