Silk is a natural fiber rich in fibroin protein and is produced by certain insects while they are in their larvae-cocoon phase. While there are quite a few insects capable of producing silk like mayflies, leafhoppers, spiders, thrips, beetles, etc., the larva of mulberry silkworm is the best-known insect for producing fine-quality silk. Silk has a wide applicability in the textile sector and apart from silk textiles, it is also used to manufacture shirts, haute couture garments, formal dress suits, robes, sundresses, etc.

Travel restrictions and shortage of labor caused a massive decline in the supply of raw silk to silk processing and manufacturing companies. Further, the shutdown of industries and import-export restrictions caused a massive decline in the sale of silk textiles which plummeted the growth rate of the market substantially.
