In the current scenario, buyers consider the vehicle’s interior as an important feature while purchasing a car, truck, or an SUV. Upholstery is an integral part of the interior. As vehicle interior is becoming more elaborate, with contrasting surfaces and textures used to bring in the decorative and functional effect, automotive makers are considering new materials for the upholstery, with enhanced environmental performance. Fabric coatings, such as Scotchgard, also observed significant growth, as customers work to preserve the upscale interiors that they purchase. In general, the peripheral industries to the automotive upholstery industry are also experiencing steady growth. As upholstery continues to evolve and capture the attention of automotive buyers, the materials and tools used to maintain that upholstery naturally experience an increasing demand. Woven fabrics are used in dashboards, sun visors, seats and interior walls, and represent the fastest growing fabric type in the automotive upholstery market. Woven fabrics often consist of nylon, polyester, wool, or polypropylene, which have excellent performance characteristics. These materials are resistant to ultraviolet radiation and have reduced flammability, making them ideal for extreme environments sometimes found within vehicle interiors.

Indian economy witnessed a growth of 7.3% in 2018, as compared to 6.7% last year. In the last few years, the GDP growth rate trend of Indian economy has changed from being steady to strong and now to fastest in the world. Indian economic growth is fueled by the upswing in private consumption expenditure in the past few years. It is projected to remain robust and the investment growth is also expected to continue in the coming years. As per the analysis, the non-resilient segment holds the major share of the market, followed by resilient flooring and textiles (carpet and area rugs). The Indian textile industry has a noteworthy presence in both the Indian economy and in the international textile economy. The growth in the disposable income of the middle and lower middle-class sections of the society has led to continuous growth of the demand of textile in India. Home textile usually includes products, such as bedsheets, pillowcases, blankets, terry towels, upholstery, table clothes, carpets, and rugs. India provides a cost-effective model of manufacturing for textile players. As compared to the key competing countries, India has competitive labor cost, power cost, and water cost. The higher finance cost, compared to competing countries, is partially mitigated through various government policies, thus the effective cost of capital becomes comparable.
