Though India is famous for Pashmina shawls and Angora Rabbit shawls, these are made in small quantities. The industry is broad present in 900+ units in unorganized sector. To become competitive and expand the industry has to go through modernization with latest technology to improve finishing.
This will result in better price and lead to further growth in wool growers.
