- The scheme was amended during the 12th Five year Plan into Revised Restructured Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme (RR-TUFS).
Amended Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme (ATUFS).
In 2015, CCEA approved ATUFS, which
replaces RR-TUFS for technology upgradation of the
textiles industry.
The amended
scheme would give a boost to “Make in India” in the textiles sector; it is expected to attract investment to the
tune of one lakh crore rupees, and create over 30 lakh jobs.
