The prices of knitted cotton yarn shot up by ₹15-35 per kg in Tiruppur, the knitwear hub in south India, as many mills have increased yarn prices by up to ₹40 per kg on account of costlier cotton and lower availability of the natural fibre. However, there was no trade reported in Mumbai yarn market as it remained closed today due to Akshay Tritiya and Eid.
