The ceramic industry in Gujarat's Morbi is facing a significant setback as 430 manufacturing units suspend operations for three weeks due to a gas supply disruption linked to the West Asia conflict. This area, known as India's ceramic hub, has already seen 450 of 670 factories cease operations.
The reliance on propane and natural gas for kiln firing makes these units particularly vulnerable to supply issues, raising concerns about further shutdowns in the sector.
