Cottoncandy faced a decline of -0.72%, settling at 58040, following profit booking activities. The outlook for India's cotton production in 2023/24 predicts a 7.5% decrease to 29.5 million bales due to reduced planted area and El Nino weather impacting productivity. The Cotton Association of India (CAI) anticipates an increase in imports to 2.2 million bales in the marketing year that began on Oct. 1. USDA's October WASDE report reflects reduced production estimates for the U.S. and a forecast of Brazil surpassing the U.S. in cotton production and potentially in exports, marking a significant shift in global cotton dynamics. Australia's cotton exports to China surged in August, indicating a favorable trade relation between the two nations. The CAI's estimates for the 2022-23 season settled slightly higher at 31.8 million bales, deviating from the government's third advance estimate of 34.3 million bales for the same season. Projections for India's 2023-2024 cotton season hint at a production range of 330 to 340 lakh bales. In the major spot market of Rajkot, cotton prices dropped by -0.09% to 27328.8 Rupees.

Support for Cottoncandy stands at 57880, potentially testing 57710 on the downside, while resistance is likely at 58340, with a potential test of 58630 if surpassed.
