- Abstract
The current study analyses trade between India and ASEAN-10 in the Textile and Garment sector for the last decade. The contributing values in the period under study bring about important lines at HS 6 levels along with important ASEAN destinations in the category. Important trade lines were identified based on their value contribution from the ten year data of the DGCIS (Directorate general of commercial intelligence and statistics). These lines mentioned in the paper hold importance in the context of the ASEAN-India free trade agreement and the future prospects of mutual gain for the countries as a result of tariff cuts. There is scope of further enhancement of T & C (Textile and clothing exports) from India to ASEAN more specifically in the cotton and cotton garment sector in the traditional countries and also newer trade prospects can be seen emerging in case of Cambodia, Philippines, Vietnam and Myanmar particularly in the recent years. There is also possibility of intra industry trade prospects in the garment line with Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam the current dominant nations in India's exports to ASEAN.
