The standard bedsheet sizes in India are Single (60"×90" / 152×229 cm), Double (90"×108" / 228×274 cm), King (up to 108"×108" / 274×274 cm), and Super King/Export XL (120"×120" / 305×305 cm). A correctly-cut double bed sheet size in inches for wholesale is 90×108 — never accept "double" without this figure in writing. Modern mattresses 6"–10" thick often need the larger 108×108 cut regardless of mattress name, to preserve enough tuck-in fabric. Undersized "Traders Cut" sheets (commonly 84×90) are a documented driver of high return rates.

If you buy bedsheets in bulk, dimension is the one spec you cannot afford to get wrong. It's not a cosmetic detail — it's the difference between inventory that sells cleanly and inventory that comes back to you as returns. This guide sets out the standard bedsheet sizes in India exactly as they should appear on a manufacturer's spec sheet, in inches and centimetres, and explains where traders quietly shave fabric to cut cost — at your expense.
We manufacture out of Sanganer, Jaipur, and this guide reflects the strict-cut tolerances we hold ourselves to on every production run, not marketing copy.
Standard Bedsheet Sizes in India — Quick Reference
Before the technical detail, here is the baseline every B2B buyer should have memorized. If a supplier's quote lists only a size name — "double," "king" — without inches, treat that as the first red flag. Names are marketing; inches are the contract.
Double Bed Sheet Size in Inches (Wholesale Standard)
The double bed sheet size in inches for wholesale orders is 90"×108" (228×274 cm) — and this single SKU is the backbone of Indian bed linen retail, typically accounting for the majority of a reseller's or boutique's unit volume.
The logic is structural, not arbitrary. A standard Indian double mattress measures 60"×78" (5×6.5 ft). A 90"×108" sheet gives:
Width drop = (90" − 60") ÷ 2 = 15" per side
Length drop = (108" − 78") ÷ 2 = 15" per sideThat 15-inch margin on every side is what allows the sheet to wrap over the mattress edge and tuck under with fabric to spare — the difference between a sheet that looks finished on a made bed and one that looks stretched. When comparing wholesale quotations, always ask for this exact figure in writing: 90×108, not "double." Treat "90×108 bedsheet wholesale manufacturer" as your literal RFQ language, not just a search term.
King Size Bedsheet Dimension (cm) and Why It's Growing
The king size bedsheet dimension in cm is 274×274 cm (108"×108"), sized to fit a 72"×78" (6×6.5 ft) king mattress with the same generous 15–18" drop on every side.
King-size demand has grown steadily across metro master bedrooms, boutique hospitality, and premium D2C brands over the last few years, for one simple reason: mattresses have gotten thicker. A sheet cut is only correct relative to the mattress it's dressing — which brings us to the drop logic every buyer needs to understand before finalizing an order.

📲 Request Spec Sheet via WhatsAppThe "Traders Cut" Warning: Why 84"×90" Isn't a Double Bed
This is the single most expensive mistake we see B2B buyers make, and it deserves its own section.
84"×90" sheet on a genuine 60"×78" mattress:
Width drop = (84" − 60") ÷ 2 = 12" per side (vs. the correct 15")
Length drop = (90" − 78") ÷ 2 = 6" per side (vs. the correct 15")Why this matters financially: the customer doesn't file a complaint about "fabric shortage" — they simply return the product as "doesn't fit" or "poor quality," and you absorb the reverse logistics cost, the marketplace return penalty, and the reputational damage of a bad review, on a product that was actually just cut wrong at the factory gate.
How to protect yourself as a buyer:- Never accept a quote that names a size without stating inches.
- Request a sample cut and physically measure it edge to edge before placing a bulk order.
- Ask the manufacturer what cutting tolerance they hold (ours is ±0.5"–1" of the stated dimension).
- Be suspicious of a "double bed sheet" priced meaningfully below the going rate for genuine 90"×108" fabric.
Mattress Thickness & Drop Logic: When to Upsize Your Sheet
Even a correctly-cut 90"×108" sheet can under-perform if it's paired with the wrong mattress. This is the technical detail most sizing guides skip entirely.
The drop a sheet provides has to cover two things: the height of the mattress itself, and enough spare fabric to tuck under it. A standard Indian spring mattress runs roughly 4"–6" thick — well within what a 90"×108" sheet's 15" drop comfortably handles.
But the market has shifted. Modern pocket-spring and memory-foam mattresses commonly run 6" to 10" thick, and premium/orthopedic mattresses can go higher still. On a 10" thick mattress, that same 15" drop has to first "spend" 10" wrapping down the side of the mattress — leaving only about 5" of genuine tuck-in fabric. That's workably tight, not comfortably loose, and it's the point at which customers start reporting sheets that "keep coming loose."
If the end customer's mattress is 6" or thicker, don't sell them a standard 90"×108" Double — size them up to a 108"×108" cut (marketed in trade listings as either "King" or "Super King," depending on the brand). The extra 9 inches of width and length absorbs the mattress height without eating into the tuck-in margin. If you stock both a mattress-thickness-aware line and a standard line, you materially reduce your return rate on premium SKUs.
Master Dimension Matrix — Mattress, Bedsheet & Pillow Cover
Use this table as your master sourcing reference. It maps mattress type directly to the correct wholesale bedsheet cut and the pillow cover that should accompany it.
| Mattress Type | Mattress Dimensions | Ideal Bedsheet Size (Inches) | Ideal Bedsheet Size (cm) | Pillow Cover Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single | 36"×72" (3×6 ft) | 60"×90" | 152×229 cm | 18"×27" (zipper) |
| Double — standard mattress (up to ~5") | 60"×78" (5×6.5 ft) | 90"×108" | 228×274 cm | 18"×27" (zipper) |
| Double — thick/luxury mattress (6"–10") | 60"×78" (5×6.5 ft) | 108"×108" ("Super King" cut) | 274×274 cm | 18"×27" (zipper) |
| King | 72"×78" (6×6.5 ft) | 108"×108" | 274×274 cm | 18"×27" (zipper) |
| Super King / Export XL | 84"×84"+ (7×7 ft or custom) | 120"×120" | 305×305 cm | 18"×27" (zipper) |
Notice that a thick-mattress Double and a true King mattress converge on the identical 108"×108" cut. This is exactly why size names are unreliable in this category and inches are not — two very different mattresses legitimately call for the same sheet, and two sheets with the same name ("double") can legitimately differ by 24 inches depending on who cut them.
Logistics & Packaging: Weight and Carton Planning
Dimension doesn't just affect fit — it drives your freight cost and carton planning. Here's how weight scales across the range on our standard 180–210 GSM cotton lines (weight will vary somewhat by fabric and print technique).
| Size | Approx. Net Weight/Set* | Standard Master Carton | Pieces per Carton |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single (60"×90") | ~0.7 kg | 24"×18"×14" (61×46×36 cm) | 30–34 pcs (~22–24 kg gross) |
| Double (90"×108") | ~1.2 kg | 24"×18"×14" (61×46×36 cm) | 18–20 pcs (~23–25 kg gross) |
| King / Upsized 108"×108" | ~1.4 kg | 24"×18"×14" (61×46×36 cm) | 15–17 pcs (~24–26 kg gross) |
| Super King / Export XL (120"×120") | ~1.75 kg | 28"×20"×16" (71×51×41 cm) | 12–14 pcs (~24–26 kg gross) |
*Weight per set includes two pillow covers where applicable (Double, King, Super King); Single sets include one.
Why this matters for your landed cost: courier and freight pricing is frequently volumetric, not purely weight-based. A carton of King/Super King sheets is both heavier per piece and lower in piece-count per carton than an equivalent Double carton — so your per-unit shipping cost is meaningfully higher on the larger SKUs. Factor this into your pricing, especially if you're quoting flat shipping to end customers on premium sizes.
Sourcing From a 90×108 Bedsheet Wholesale Manufacturer
If you're evaluating a 90×108 bedsheet wholesale manufacturer, dimension accuracy should be the first thing you audit — before print quality, before GSM, before price. A beautiful print on an undersized cut is still a product your customer will return.
At Shree Srishti Textile, every roll is cut against a fixed pattern block calibrated to the exact finished dimension, not the pre-wash dimension — cotton fabric shrinks slightly after its first wash, and factories that cut to the nominal size rather than accounting for shrinkage deliver sheets that measure short the moment a customer washes them once. Our cutting tolerance is held within ±0.5"–1" of the stated finished dimension, verified at both the cutting table and final QC before packing.
This is what "strict-cut, export-compliant" means in practice: dimensional consistency you can rely on for a repeat order six months from now, not just the sample piece you were shown at negotiation.
Reading a Jaipur Wholesale Bedsheet Dimension Guide (Factory Spec Sheet)
Any credible Jaipur wholesale bedsheet dimension guide — including a proper quotation from us — should give you five data points per SKU, not just a size name and a price:
- Finished dimension in inches and cm — post-wash, not loom-width.
- GSM (grams per square metre) — fabric weight/density; affects both feel and durability.
- Thread count or weave type — relevant for premium and export lines.
- Pillow cover count, size, and closure type — 18"×27" with zipper closure is our standard across Double, King, and Super King sets.
- Cutting tolerance — the ± variance the factory commits to.
If a supplier's spec sheet is missing more than one of these, that's a negotiating flag — ask for the missing data before committing capital, not after the shipment arrives.
Trader-sourced inventory is cut to whatever the current fabric roll allows — dimensions can shift order to order with no accountability, because a trader is reselling someone else's production, not standing behind their own cutting process. As a direct manufacturer based in Sanganer, we control the entire chain — fabric sourcing, cutting, stitching, and final QC — all under one roof, to the exact specifications in the Master Dimension Matrix above. We also support size customization for buyers with a specific mattress profile: hospitality clients with non-standard mattress depths, export clients working to a different regional sizing convention, or D2C brands wanting a signature oversized drop as a point of differentiation.
