The Textile Processing Sector is the most vital link in the value chain in the textile and clothing sector. This is the first report of its kind to provide a detailed information (on census basis) on technology, manpower, system of processing, type of product processed, installed capacity, capacity utilisation, awareness on eco-parameters, effluent treatment facility, etc. The above database is of immense use to not only the trade and industry but to all stakeholders including the export segment and the policy framers in the government.
