India\u2019s opportunity in Japan has moved beyond a trade-policy discussion into a measurable commercial gap, but India has yet to capture a significant share of it. Japan\u2019s apparel imports from China have fallen for four straight years to $*<\/span>*<\/span>.*<\/span>*<\/span> billion in *<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>, and China\u2019s share of the market fall below half in *<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>. Yet India, which has shipped garments to Japan duty-free since *<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>, still accounts for under *<\/span> per cent. Much of the share ceded by China has instead gone to Vietnam and Bangladesh.<\/p>\n

Japan\u2019s apparel imports from China have fallen by more than *<\/span>*<\/span> per cent since *<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>, when they stood at $*<\/span>*<\/span>.*<\/span>*<\/span> billion, according to Japan Customs. By *<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>*<\/span>, China accounted for less than half of Japan\u2019s clothing imports, a level not seen in decades.<\/p>\n
