RIICO opens Rupaheri Textile Park in Bhilwara

Jaipur: Investors keen to set up textile units in Bhilwara, the state’s textile hub, have reason to cheer. RIICO has opened allocations under the 10th phase of its direct allotment scheme, offering industrial plots ranging from 1,500 sq metre to 36,000 sq metre in Rupaheri Textile Park.

Applicants who signed MoUs with the state govt during the Rising Rajasthan summit can apply online through RIICO’s portal until May 14, 2026. “Those yet to execute MoUs may also do so before the deadline to participate in the scheme,” said a RIICO official. The park allows industries in cotton and natural fibre, man-made fibre, garments and ready-made apparel, technical textiles, handloom and handicrafts, wool processing, and textile accessories.

Developed over 209 hectares in Hurda tehsil, the park offers 275 plots ranging from 500 sq metres to 1,25,000 sq metres, with infrastructure support for spinning, weaving, processing, and garment units. RIICO has sanctioned Rs 221 crore for the park’s development. Work is underway on roads, culverts, boundary walls, and power infrastructure, including high-mast lighting. Environmental clearance has already been secured from the State-Level Impact Assessment Authority.

Under the Rajasthan Textile and Apparel Policy 2025, investors will benefit from incentives such as asset creation support for 10 years, exemptions on stamp duty and electricity duty, green solution incentives for eco-friendly projects, and 50% reimbursement of employee training costs. MSMEs will receive additional benefits under the Rajasthan MSME Policy 2024.
