This report synthesizes disclosures across a broad “other textile products” coverage set spanning (1) cotton value chain (spinning → fabric → garments), (2) home textiles (towels/sheets/bed & bath), (3) man‑made fibres and polyester filament yarn (PFY) chains, (4) recycled polyester/rPET platform plays, and (5) technical/industrial textiles (nets, geosynthetics, tyre cord, reinforcement). FY26 was characterized by volatile trade/tariff regimes (notably US), sharp raw material moves (cotton, MMF, crude-linked inputs), and a visible divergence between companies with (a) strong vertical integration + energy advantage + branded mix and (b) leveraged capacity additions facing pricing lag/pass‑through friction. FY27 outlook is broadly more constructive in most management commentaries: normalization of tariffs, better spreads in cotton spinning, ramp-up of new capacities (processing, performance fabrics, pillow/utility bedding in the US), and margin recovery programs targeted to move EBITDA margins “into the teens” for several home textile players.
