S Senthilkumar, President, ITAMMA in his welcome speech mentioned that Government of India has recently proposed a drive in favour of indigenous manufacturing and taking several policy decisions to make its ´Make in India´ campaign successful; where changes have been made in import and export duty structures as well as excise and other areas which will help the textile engineering industry to make the business at ease.
The new government is on the right path with ´Make in India´, but I just hope that the idea is carried forward with concrete steps in the upcoming budget. The budget should boost the domestic SME´s and encourage their growth.
