While the government has come out with sporadic policy measures to promote the sector, Budget 2021-22 has outlined some major direct and indirect sops that are expected to create an enabling ecosystem that could help the sector scale-up significantly. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said a Mega Investment Textiles Parks (MITRA) scheme will be launched to create world class infrastructure with plug-and-play facilities. Seven Mega Textile Parks will be established in three years. This is in addition to the PLI scheme announced 2-3 months ago.
