Lack of testing labs, Kasturi cotton brand in limbo
The New Indian Express Shivamogga
|October 12, 2025
THE premium cotton initiative, Kasturi Cotton Bharat, launched with the aim of establishing a globally recognised national cotton brand, is facing early roadblocks due to inadequate testing and certification infrastructure.

Launched on World Cotton Day in October 2022 by the Ministry of Textiles in collaboration with the Cotton Corporation of India (CCI) and the Textile Export Promotion Council (TEXPROCIL), the Kasturi Cotton brand was envisioned as a symbol of quality and national pride. The goal was to shift India's global image from being a mass producer of short-staple, lower-quality cotton to a source of premium, high-grade fibre.
