The government is planning to expand the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for the textile sector, according to Giriraj Singh. The expansion will include man-made fiber apparel, fabrics, and technical textiles.
The initiative is designed to provide a boost to the industry, attract further investment, and accelerate overall growth. It is also expected to support job creation and strengthen India’s position in the global textile market.
Discussions have also taken place with the footwear industry to address issues related to raw materials, according to officials.
