The textile group has filed a complaint, requesting legal action be taken against the yarn producers. Leading yarn manufacturers are claimed to have given their dealers email instructions mandating that 20% uneven (C or D grade) yarn be accepted.
Textile weavers in Surat, the biggest centre for man-made fabrics in the nation, have voiced grave worries over the claimed official approval given by the Central Government to yarn manufacturing firms to supply third-grade or subpar yarn.
The Quality Control Order (QCO) on Polyester was allegedly created by the Bureau of Indian criteria (BIS) with poor quality criteria that, in the opinion of weavers, significantly fell short of international norms. The weavers worry that this will have an adverse effect on the creation of high-quality clothing and damage India’s textile industry’s reputation.
of July 3, 2023, under IS Code No. 17261.2022, the QCO orders for polyester yarn that were implemented in accordance with the BIS Amendment of June 3, 2023, went into force. According to the amendment, each yarn maker must mark the boxes with the words “stock diable,” “conventional diable,” “yarn dispatch diable,” “catening diable,” or “easy diable” to identify the type of yarn within.
Users of the yarn are supposed to get information from this labelling. However, it appears that the goods sent out after July 3 have not been tagged in accordance with the regulations, raising the possibility that yarn producers have broken the law.
The textile group has filed a complaint, requesting legal action be taken against the yarn producers. Leading yarn manufacturers are claimed to have given their dealers email instructions mandating that 20% uneven (C or D grade) yarn be accepted.
If a weaver orders 100 denier yarn, they must accept variations of 96.2, 100, or 103.08 denier in one carton in accordance with BSI guidelines. Weavers are further advised that no claims can be made for any problems caused by the supplied yarn.
