Short answer
In Surat's embroidery hubs (Katargam, Varachha, Pandesara, Kumbharia), multi-head machine embroidery job work is billed at a rate per 1,000 stitches (typically ₹0.20 to ₹0.50 per 1,000 stitches), depending on thread type, sequin (sitara) count, and cording (dori) attachments.
If you are manufacturing your own saree or kurti designs in Surat, understanding stitch-rate math is essential:
Job-Work Cost per Piece = (Total Stitch Count ÷ 1,000) × Rate per 1,000 Stitches.Tell us what you're looking for and we'll point you to the right market or supplier.
