Ready-made garment export figures show resilience of apparel sector: AEPC

New Delhi, Feb 17 || The Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) on Tuesday said the latest ready-made garment (RMG) figures show resilience of Indian apparel exporters, who continue to navigate challenging international conditions.

On a cumulative basis, RMG exports during April–January 2025-26 stood at $13,129.1 million, registering a growth of 1.6 per cent over the corresponding period of April–January 2024-25 and a significant growth of 13.3 per cent compared to April–January 2023-24.

RMG exports also showed a positive growth of 7.2 per cent when compared with January 2024, indicating underlying strength and recovery momentum in the industry despite persistent global headwinds, said Dr A Sakthivel, Chairman, AEPC.

The temporary decline in January exports can largely be attributed to high US tariff pressures and ongoing global volatility, which have disrupted order flows and created uncertainty across key markets.
