Madhya Pradesh has surged ahead among the seven states hosting Prime Minister Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (PM MITRA) parks, drawing the highest level of committed investments totalling over ₹21,500 crore and rapid development progress.
Located in Dhar district, the PM MITRA park in Madhya Pradesh is now the most advanced in implementation, driven by swift land allotment, proactive engagement with investors, competitive power tariff structures, and plans for integrated social infrastructure around the industrial zone.
In the recently completed second phase of land allocation, authorities allotted 320 acres to 13 companies, which have proposed investments close to ₹7,500 crore and are expected to generate more than 16,000 jobs once operational.
Key contributions include a ₹4,500 crore commitment by Bhilosa Industries aimed at strengthening the man-made fibre value chain and significant investment proposals from Tamil Nadu-based textile firms expanding into central India.
Overall, 38 firms have submitted proposals totalling over ₹21,500 crore, with projections indicating the creation of nearly 55,000 direct jobs as the textile ecosystem takes shape.
Industry participants credited Madhya Pradesh’s lead to:
Faster land allotment and clearances
Competitive industrial climate with lower power tariffs
Integrated planning that incorporates housing, healthcare, education and other amenities for workers and families
Effective investor outreach and support from the Madhya Pradesh Industrial Development Corporation (MPIDC)
A spokesperson from a Tamil Nadu textile firm noted that accessibility to raw materials, combined with attractive policy incentives and plug-and-play facilities, made the Dhar PM MITRA park a competitive choice for expanding integrated textile manufacturing.
The PM MITRA park initiative, guided by the Government of India’s 5F vision — Farm to Fibre to Factory to Fashion to Foreign, aims to establish world-class integrated textile clusters across India, reducing production costs and boosting export competitiveness.
The seven designated park locations include sites in Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh, each tailored to attract large-scale manufacturing, technology upgrades, skill development, and value-chain integration.
While Madhya Pradesh leads in investment traction and implementation pace, other state parks have shown varied progress — from land acquisition and environmental clearances to early-stage investor engagement — highlighting a nationwide effort to develop textile clusters by 2027-28.
