Rieter AG, the Swiss multinational textile machinery major mulls textile machinery manufacturing unit for short staple spinning in India, stated Jorg Buchler, Sales Head, Rieter Textile Systems, Switzerland.

Addressing media from the sidelines of the German textile machinery symposium, he said, "We have approached the Government of India for necessary permission in this regard."

He did not state any further on company plans apart from the location of the facility planned.

Currently, Reiter's Indian partner Lakshmi Machine Works (LMW) has objected to Rieter's plans of setting up ring spinning machinery production in the country.

Buchler informed that India was a good market for Rieter machinery and past two years showed significant growth with current year sales growing by 100 percent over previous year, he added.
