In order to position India as the global leader in
Technical Textiles manufacturing, Government of India, Ministry of Textiles is
inviting Research proposals for Funding for Design, Development and
Manufacturing of Machinery, Tools, Equipment, and Testing Instruments under
NTTM.
As on date high-tech machinery, equipment, plants,
special tools and accessories are being largely imported. In order to meet the
diverse needs of textile industry and to make our nation self-reliant and
Atmanirbhar, it is essential to go for indigenisation by tapping the local
skill in design, engineering, fabrication and prototyping. Hence NTTM under
Component-I (Research, Innovation and
Development) envisages indigenous manufacturing of machinery, equipment, tools
and testing instruments for Technical Textiles on Make in India concept.
Novel proposals are invited from Companies engaged in
manufacturing of any machinery (preferably Textile machinery), Textile/Garment
value chain manufacturers, Research organisations, Academic institutions (both
public funded and private).
The detailed General guidelines are available on the
official website of the National Technical Textiles Mission (NTTM), Ministry of
Textiles, viz. nttm.texmin.gov.in

Indigenous development of state-of-the-art technical textile machinery and equipment would support and enhance the manufacturing capabilities of high-end technological products, and thus would play an instrumental role in driving India’s Technology Readiness Level in technical textiles.
