India Trade Associations

 
Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC)
Incorporated in1978, AEPC is the official body of apparel exporters in India that provides invaluable assistance to Indian exporters as well as importers/international buyers who choose India as their preferred sourcing destination for garments.

Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI)
Confederation of Indian Textile Industry, a Company under Section 25 of the Companies Act 1956 is the new name of Indian Cotton Mills' Federation (ICMF). ICMF had been established in March 1958 and later incorporated as a company in February 1967. Originally, ICMF represented the organized textile units in spinning and composite sectors comprising mills producing cotton yarn, blended and man-made spun yarn, fabrics and home furnishings. The need for an umbrella organization representing the entire textile chain had been felt by various segments of the industry for quite some time, in order to properly project the potential, problems and requirements of the industry in a holistic and comprehensive way, nationally and internationally. After extensive consultations, ICMF initiated the process of establishing an umbrella organization for the textile industry in August 2000 by broad basing the coverage of its Member Associations to include independent weavers and processors. Later Member Associations were also advised to admit manufacturers of technical textiles and garments. In 2003-04 the Federation also started admitting associations and federations catering to textile segments not covered under ICMF, as Associate Members. Since many of the Associate Members were not connected with cotton or mill industry, it was felt that the name of the organization should also be broad based to represent the entire textile sector. The process reached its logical conclusion with the formation of CITI in May 2005.

Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts (EPCH)
EPCH is the apex body which coordinates handicraft exports from India. It provides Comprehensive information to foreign buyers on the entire range of handicraft of India and liaisons between Indian handicraft exporters and Foreign buyers.

India Economy
India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. An industrial slowdown early in 2008, followed by the global financial crisis, led annual GDP growth to slow to 6.5% in 2009, still the second highest growth in the world among major economies. India escaped the brunt of the global financial crisis because of cautious banking policies and a relatively low dependence on exports for growth. Domestic demand, driven by purchases of consumer durables and automobiles, has re-emerged as a key driver of growth, as exports have fallen since the global crisis started. India's fiscal deficit increased substantially in 2008 due to fuel and fertilizer subsidies, a debt waiver program for farmers, a job guarantee program for rural workers, and stimulus expenditures. The government abandoned its deficit target and allowed the deficit to reach 6.8% of GDP in FY10. Nevertheless, as shares of GDP, both government spending and taxation are among the lowest in the world. The government has expressed a commitment to fiscal stimulus in FY10, and to deficit reduction the following two years. It has increased the pace of privatization of government-owned companies, partly to offset the deficit. India's long term challenges include widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited employment opportunities, and insufficient access to basic and higher education. Over the long-term, a growing population and changing demographics will only exacerbate social, economic, and environmental problems.
