To revive Tirupur dyeing industry Central govt sanctions Rs.200 cr

The Central government sanctions Rs. 200 crores to revive the Tirupur dyeing industry which has been in bad shape ever since the court ordered to closure of all dyeing units in concern of the environment issue due to which the Tirupur Dyeing industry made huge investments in the first ever ZLD projects putting them in a severe financial crisis and is on the verge of closure.

The government after taking into cognizance of the problem faced by the dyeing industry in Tirupur and on recommendation of the Ministry of Textiles, Ministry of Finance sanctioned funds to the state government of Tamil Nadu for the 18 Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETPs) as an interest free loan which later will be converted into grant based on the performance of the CETPs.

The move will help ailing CETPs and 450 dyeing units to recover from the financial crisis and help them to a complete the project to achieve 100 percent capacity utilization.
