OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Sub: Integrated Development of Leather Sector

1. The Indian Leather Industry occupies a unique position in the Indian economy in terms of its contribution to employment and export potential. In spite of a strong raw material base, India’s share in the global market is a meagre one. The experts have emphasized the need for capital infusion capacity addition and modernization in various segments of the leather sector to bring about efficiencies and economies of scale in order to achieve increased share in global markets.

2. Based on the assessed need of the leather sector, a comprehensive scheme for modernization and technology up gradation in all the segments of the Leather Industry, namely tanneries, footwear, footwear components, saddlery, leather goods and garments, with an outlay of Rs. 290 crore has been approved by the Government. The Scheme titled “Integrated Development of Leather Sector” (IDLS) will be implemented during the 10th Plan Period (2002-2007). The scheme will be applicable with immediate effect i.e. 3rd November, 2005.

Eligibility

Financial Assistance

4. The financial assistance envisaged under the Scheme will consist of grant to the extent of 30% of the cost of plant and machinery for SSI and 20% of cost of plant & machinery for other units (i.e. non-small scale units) subject to a ceiling of Rs. 50 lakh for both categories for technology up-gradation/modernization and/or expansion. Investment grant would also be available to the units investing their own resources.

Implementation Arrangements

5. The scheme will be implemented through two PIUs one at CLRI, Chennai for tannery and another at FDDI, Noida for leather goods and garments , saddlery , leather footwear and footwear component. SIDBI would be the nodal agency for the Scheme. Any industrial unit desirous of availing financial assistance under this Scheme would apply in the prescribed form to the concerned PIU i.e FDDI , Noida and CLRI , Chennai for respective leather sectors. After technical appraisal, PIU would return the application back to the unit within fifteen days. The unit then would apply to the concerned bank for loan. The bank after financial appraisal of the project would accords its sanction and will forward the application along with formal sanction to the concerned PIU. The same will then be submitted by PIU to the Steering Committee and the sanction of financial assistance under the Scheme would be accorded by the Steering committee. PIU will serve as the Secretariat for the Steering Committee.

Composition of the Steering Committee is specified in the detailed guideline enclosed with the O.M.

Release of Fund

6. Financial assistance will be released by SIDBI only after the arrival of machines at site.

Project Monitoring and Evaluation

7. Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion will periodically monitor and review the progress of the Scheme. The guidelines for the Scheme are enclosed.

1.0 Objective

The Indian Leather Industry occupies a unique position in the Indian economy in terms of its contribution to employment and export potential. In spite of a strong raw material base, India’s share in the global leather trade is a meagre one. As Leather Industry in India was reserved for Small Scale Sector for a very long time, the level of investment in the Leather Sector is very low resulting in smaller production base, poor productivity. Obsolete technology, lack of standardization and poor marketing infrastructure has been other factors associated with the sector not growing to its potential. Given the significance of this Industry to the overall health of the Indian economy, its employment potential and historical backlog of technology up-gradation, it has been emphasized by experts that in order to assist and improve its competitiveness in the global market, it is essential for the Leather Industry to have access to timely and adequate capital in order to up-grade its technology level.

In light of the foregoing the present scheme is aimed at enabling existing tanneries, footwear, footwear components and leather products units to upgrade leading to productivity gains, right-sizing of capacity, cost cutting, design and development. The scheme targets creation of positive ambience for technology up gradation and environmental impact for attaining global competitiveness through productivity gains, minimization of wastages, right sizing of capacity, cost cutting, design and development etc.

2.0 Eligibility Criteria

2.1 All existing units in leather and leather products including tanneries, leather goods, saddlery, leather footwear and footwear component sector undertaking viable and bankable programmes on technology up-gradation on or after the date of notification are eligible for assistance. Any unit in existence for at least three years and having cash profits for at least two years on 3^rd November, 2005 would be considered as an existing unit.

2.2 Modernization programmes funded by SIDBI / Banks as well as those programmes undertaken by existing production units from their own resources will be eligible for assistance.

2.3 Financial assistance under the Scheme shall be available only for such projects in which the loan has been sanctioned by SIDBI Banks / FIs on or after 3^rd November, 2005 of the scheme under the present guidelines. In the case of self-financed modernization scheme financial assistance under the scheme shall be available only for such projects where the order for the purchase of machinery has been placed on or after 3^rd November, 2005 and subject to necessary documents being filed as per format while making the application under the present scheme.

2.4 Existing units, relocating to new locations, seeking modernization expansion packages, inclusive of solutions to environmental problems, will also be eligible.

2.5 The project submitted by the concerned unit should be assessed to be a financially viable and bankable project. The project should lead to:

[i] Demonstrable increase in unit value realization and/or

[ii] Production capacities and/or

[iii] Better compliance of pollution control norms.

3.0 SCOPE OF THE SCHEME

Technology Up-gradation will include the following:

3.1 Measures for technology up-gradation, productivity enhancement, improved environmental safeguards, global competitiveness through cost control and minimization of waste.

3.2 Measures for up-gradation and modernization of machinery facilities including in plant lay-out and civil and associated electrical work relating to foundation of machinery facilities but excluding building and other related infrastructure.

3.3 Measures for product diversification by way of design and development, hardware and technology support including IT solutions and net working and E Governance.

3.4 Measures for improvement in plant ecology, up gradation of leather finishing facilities and worker safety.

3.5 Measures for implementation of secure environmental management plans at the individual production unit levels including replacement of pit technology in tanneries or installation of in plant pollution control devices such as chrome recovery.

3.6 Measures for quality control and testing systems as well as any obligatory measures stipulated by government regulations for individual production enterprises at unit level.

3.7 Addition of closing room facilities for footwear upper units and creation of production facilities for footwear components.

3.8 Creation of in house R & D and testing facilities and establishment of sample making facilities.

3.9 Installation of the following types of machinery in an existing unit by way of replacement of existing machinery and/or expansion will be eligible for coverage under the scheme.

3.10 Steering committee may seek the advice of National institutions for considering any other activity not listed above and machines not specified in the current guidelines for inclusion under Modernization scheme provided that they lead to visible and viable improvements leading to technology up gradation. Similarly, the Steering Committee may delete an activity/list of machineries on the advice of expert institution. However, diversification will be treated as new venture and not allowed.

3.11 Existing units will have the option to go for single or multiple activities as mentioned above with overall assistance limit of 50 lakhs. Modular efforts to modernization will be permitted generally with a time interval of at least six months between applications and on the successful completion of the earlier modules of modernization. However, Steering committee will take a view on applications for modernization in multiple numbers of times based on a) fair and equitable assistance to first time applicants and b) competitive merit of the applicant as evidenced by financial appraisals by FIs / Banks / SIDBI and technical appraisal.
