India\u2019s textile sector entered a fresh risk-assessment phase today<\/strong> after reports confirmed that the United States is considering a zero-tariff<\/a> trade clause for Bangladesh<\/strong>, potentially granting duty-free access to Bangladeshi garment exports<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This development immediately triggered renewed concerns across Indian textile exporters<\/strong>, as Bangladesh is India\u2019s largest low-cost competitor<\/strong> in the US apparel market. While no immediate stock sell-off was seen, sentiment turned cautious across textile counters<\/strong>, especially in export-heavy garment manufacturers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
