The growing availability of fast fashion in India has quickly led to an increase in the consumption of resources and waste. Due to this, the textile and apparel industry generates a significant amount of waste annually in India, most of which is currently disposed of as municipal solid waste (MSW). This industry is responsible for the third-largest waste stream in the dry fraction of MSW, after plastics. Alarmingly, only 12%–15% of this waste goes to recycling facilities.
