Addressing the International Textile Summit 360 in Coimbatore through video conference, Mr. Stalin said Tamil Nadu had been the largest exporter of ready-made garments in India for the last five years. The textile industry in Tamil Nadu would meet the future with confidence, he added. After the DMK government relaxed norms and made available the ₹2.5-crore subsidy for any investment in the textile park, it received 101 applications. The Tamil Nadu New Integrated Textile Policy 2025-2026 focuses on the modernisation of the textile value chain in the State. Mr. Udhayanidhi disbursed subsidies under the interest subvention scheme for the spinning sector and capital investment subsidies for the processing sector and wider-width fabric printing machines for the cut-and-sew sector.
