11 February 2025, Mumbai
The Union Minister for Textiles, Giriraj Singh, will inaugurate Bharat Tex 2025 on February 12 at Expo Mart, Greater Noida. The event, building on the success of its inaugural edition in 2024, will bring together global buyers, policymakers, and industry leaders to drive business opportunities and partnerships.
Sudhir Sekhri, Chairman of AEPC, emphasized the event’s strong sustainability focus. "Bharat Tex 2025 is committed to promoting eco-friendly practices with innovations in organic fabrics, recycled materials, and energy-efficient technologies," he said. He also highlighted the rising global trust in India’s textile sector, with the readymade garment (RMG) industry experiencing significant growth.
"India's RMG exports saw an 11.6 per cent increase from April-December 2024-25 over the same period last year. Free trade agreements (FTAs) and supportive state policies have further boosted the sector. The Union Budget 2025-26 has also reinforced growth by providing MSME credit support and rationalizing customs duties,” Sekhri added.
The event will feature participation from 110 countries, along with global brands and retail giants. High-level government-to-government (G2G) and business-to-business (B2B) meetings, strategic MoUs, and joint ventures are expected to drive foreign investment.
Bharat Tex 2025 aims to position India as a key player in the global textile market. It will showcase advancements in sustainability, circularity, and digitization. Attendees can explore fabric testing zones, product demonstrations, thematic discussions, and master classes by industry experts.
With top policymakers, global CEOs, and industry stakeholders in attendance, Bharat Tex 2025 is set to be a landmark event, strengthening India’s role as a reliable textile hub.
