Motilal Oswal initiated coverage on 8 Indian textile and apparel stocks with buy ratings on Gokaldas, Arvind, Pearl Global, Indo Count and Welspun Living, citing capacity expansion, FTAs, lower tariffs and China-plus-one sourcing tailwinds.

Why this matters

Second bullish broker call on Arvind in quick succession after Emkay's upgrade, reinforcing the India textile cycle thesis as Arvind pushes into UK-EU sourcing via a London studio.

Retail-brand signals steady at 1,869 over the last 90 days, with textile exporters dominating recent flow.
