Hosiery sales up as mercury dips
Ludhiana, November 17
With the day temperature witnessing a sharp fall of about 10° during the last one week, hosiery sales have started picking up. Quite contrary to the cynicism prevailing among the hosiery manufacturers, till the recent past, who were seeing their stocks piling up, there seems to be some hope at long last.
While the maximum temperature recorded on last Sunday (November 9) was 30°C, only the next Sunday it was just 20°C, a sharp fall of 10°. The weather experts said it was unprecedented as usually the temperature falls gradually.
Woollens became the order of the day after the showers on Sunday brought the temperature down considerably in Ludhiana.
