Textile Cluster Development Scheme
Catalyzing Textile Industry Growth
TEXTILE CLUSTER DEVELOPMENT SCHEME - Introduction
The Haryana Government has launched the Textile Cluster Development Scheme under the Haryana Aatma Nirbhar Textile Policy 2022-25. This initiative is designed to enhance the competitiveness of textile MSMEs through the establishment of Common Facility Centres (CFCs), aiming to foster innovation and improve technology, skills, and market access for the textile sector.
Objectives & Quantum of Assistance
The scheme’s primary objective is to support the sustainable growth and development of textile MSMEs by resolving common industry issues. It provides substantial financial support by covering 90% of project costs up to ₹10 crores for setting up CFCs, requiring a minimum contribution of 10% from the participating Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) formed by at least 15 textile MSMEs.
Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible, groups of 15 or more micro, small, and medium textile industrial units must form an SPV. These units should be functional within a 50-kilometerradius across multiple districts of Haryana and have completed the Udhyam Registration Certificate and Haryana Udhyam Memorandum. Existing textile clusters can also upgrade their facilities under this scheme.
Application and Documentation
Applicants must submit their proposals online, including a concept note and detailed project report, which should outline the objectives, expected outcomes, and comprehensive plans for the CFC. The application process also involves a background verification form and requires the SPV to be a registered Section 8 company.
Procedure for Disbursement and Appeals
The financial assistance will be disbursed in three tranches, with each tranche contingent upon the SPV meeting specific development miles tones and financial contributions. Appeals against any decisions made by the authorities can be submitted, providing a structured avenue for dispute resolution.
Penalties and Recourse
Strict penalties are in place for misrepresentation or misuse of the scheme, including possible financial recovery actions and exclusion from future state benefits. This ensures the integrity and effective utilization of the scheme’s resources.
Conclusion
The Textile Cluster Development Scheme is a strategic effort by the Haryana Government to bolster the state’s textile industry by providing critical infrastructure and support services. By reducing logistical burdens and fostering collective growth, the scheme aims to enhance the global competitiveness of Haryana’s textile sector.
