Pashmina is not banned...It is another wool called "Shahtoosh" which is banned. The reason for its ban is that the antelopes "Chiru" are killed to get the wool required to make a small shawl (3 antelopes for 1 small shawl). Hence Chiru population have reduced drastically. To protect the species, Govt of India placed a Ban on Shahtoosh shawls in 2002. Since pashmina and Shahtoosh products are similar, pashmina products pay due to ban on Shahtoosh.

Pashmina is a type of wool. This name was initially popular only in Asian countries like Nepal, India and Pakistan. And specially in KASHMIR (India). Now a days same wool is also known by name of cashmere. If you talk about wool standards, then only CASHMERE is registered name in WOOL ACT. And there are strict norms which people need to follow to get their products marked as 100% cashmere. So some of people have started selling CASHMERE on name of Pashmina these days. As Pashmina is not something which is governed by WOOL ACT. It is strange that people are selling silk scarves also by name of Pashmina. Pashmina names been misused so much that these days even scarves and shawls are sometimes named as PASHMINAS. But in reality if you ask any wool expert, Pashmina and Cashmere is name of same type of wool. Look at RELATED SECTION for links which provides more information about this.
The previous explanation is nonsense. Seta is the Italian word for 'silk'. 'Pashmina' is derived from the ancient Persian word, 'pashm' meaning 'very fine fleece'. Moghul emperors first refined 'cashmere' or 'pashmina' goats wool into something ressembling the soft, fine wool we find today when they invaded Kashmir. 'Pashmina' is the word that Indians and Kashmiris have used to describe cashmere for centuries. In fact it was Lebanese traders supplying fine pashmina shawls to the French elite (the likes of the Empress Josephine) who first called 'Pashmina' Cachemire, after the country of origin. So the correct technical description in the UK and USA for your pashmina stole would be 70 % cashmere, and 30 % silk... That is, if it is made of cashmere and silk. There have been many adulterations since the world jumped on this band-wagon. The first fashion 'pashminas' which I popularised in the early 1990's through my fashion brand Sophia Swire London, were a combination of the very finest 'pashmina' / cashmere (70%) and the very finest silk (30%) and they were hand woven and hand dyed in Nepal. This quality is no longer manufactured anywhere. Sophia Swire
The material for pashmina scarves comes from the wool of the Pashmina sheep. This sheep lives in high altitudes in parts of Asia, including northern India and Nepal.
