Related Keywords: hire purchase scheme, Indian textile ministry, powerloom unit, Textile Industry, TUFS

TUFS facilitates modernisation and upgradation of textiles industry by providing credit at reduced rates to entrepreneurs both in the organised and the unorganised sector in the textiles industry. The Textile ministry to benefit small units in the powerloom sector will be introducing hire-purchase scheme under TUFS.

The Indian powerloom sector has around 43 lakh weavers who are in severe need of modernisation and the ministry is hopeful that this hire-purchase scheme will benefit them as each machinery costs Rs 20-30 lakh.

Weavers offered hire purchase scheme to modernize at least a part of their weaving facility.

Union Ministry of Textiles to give a major fillip for modernization in the weaving sector a programme has been launched called the ‘Hire-Purchase Scheme’ in the revised restructured Technology Upgradation Scheme (RR-TUFS). A special purpose vehicle (SPV), promoted by a group of weavers, a large-scale textile manufacturer and a co-operative or an entrepreneur, will procure the machines and provide them on a hire-purchase basis to the weavers.

Lease rent attracts 12 per cent service tax, and this should be removed for the scheme so that the SPV can lease out the looms to the weavers.
