The project was inaugurated earlier this week by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and has been developed at an estimated cost of INR 1,695.54 crore under the PM MITRA scheme.
According to Ministry of Textiles, the park spans approximately 1,327 acres and is expected to attract investments exceeding INR 6,000 crore across the textile value chain.
The ministry stated that nearly 62 per cent of the park area has already been allotted, indicating early industrial interest in the integrated textile manufacturing ecosystem.
Officials further noted that the project is expected to generate more than 24,400 jobs while supporting additional indirect employment opportunities linked to manufacturing, logistics and ancillary industries.
The PM MITRA scheme was launched to establish large-scale integrated textile parks across India with infrastructure covering the entire manufacturing chain from fibre processing to finished products and exports. Under the programme, seven sites have been approved across Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.
According to the ministry, the PM MITRA programme aligns with the government’s “5F” vision covering Farm to Fibre to Factory to Fashion to Foreign markets.
Narendra Modi stated during the inauguration that the Warangal park would support India’s textile manufacturing growth while creating large-scale employment opportunities, particularly for women workers.
The ministry added that the park has been planned as an integrated industrial ecosystem with internal road infrastructure, dedicated power facilities, water supply systems and multimodal connectivity to railway networks and seaports to support logistics and exports.
Industrial units operating within the park will also be eligible for Competitive Incentive Support under the PM MITRA scheme alongside convergence benefits from other central government programmes.
The government has allocated INR 300 crore for each PM MITRA park to support infrastructure creation and attract private sector investment.
Industry participants have noted that integrated industrial parks with common infrastructure and logistics connectivity are increasingly being viewed as important growth drivers for manufacturing, exports and industrial real estate development across emerging regional corridors.
