Textile stocks, in the past one year, have witnessed a significant re-rating with readymade garment exporters (RMG) stocks like KPR Mills and Gokaldas Exports (GEL) rallying around 6x.

According to analysts at ICICI Securities, a material improvement in financial performance (RoCE for KPR improved 440 bps to around 24% in FY21), deleveraging of balance-sheet and robust order book for the companies have been key triggers for the re-rating.

"Apparel exporters, in the past couple of quarters, have witnessed strong customer interest owing to many large global retailers diversifying their sourcing and reducing dependence on China. Overall order booking from India has increased rapidly due to the China+1 strategy of global retailers. Indian apparel players are exploring opportunities to expand their garmenting capacities to capitalise on long term growth opportunities," they said in a recent note.

Here are a few stocks from the sector that look good on the charts.
