India
In 2010, all FWF country studies for the FWF priority countries (Bangladesh, China, India and Turkey) will be updated and redrafted into a new, more readable format. Below are the current country studies (the list is currently being completed).

India has a big garment industry, concentrated mostly around Bangalore and Tirupur.
Because the labour situation is quite different in these two regions, the country study for India is split up into two separate documents as well.
Tirupur
The most recent study on Tirupur is an update on new developments dating from 2007, which in part supercedes the 2004 country study. A third additional study concerns the wage accord between the Tirupur Exporters' Association and five Tirupur trade unions.
Bangalore
FWF is currently working on updating its country study for the Bangalore region. The report on the FFI complaint in 2006, however, contains a lot of information about the labour situation in Bangalore.
