To institutionalize the development of the Khadi and Village Industries sector, the Government of India first constituted the All India Khadi and Village Industries Board in 1953. This was followed by the enactment of the Khadi and Village Industries Commission Act, 1956 (No. 61 of 1956), which inter alia provides for the establishment of the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) as a statutory body.

KVIC is entrusted with the responsibility to plan, promote, facilitate, organize, and assist in the establishment and development of Khadi and Village Industries in rural areas, in coordination with other agencies engaged in rural development.

In view of evolving market dynamics, technological advancements, and the need to further strengthen support systems, certain provisions of the KVIC Act, last amended in 2006, require updating. A comprehensive amendment is proposed to align the legislative framework with current sectoral needs and to enhance KVIC’s role as a facilitator of growth, innovation, and sustainable village industries.

To strengthen and modernize the Khadi and Village Industries sector, the Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSME) in collaboration with MyGov invites citizens to share their views on the proposed Amendments to the Khadi and Village Industries Commission Act, 1956.

The Ministry of MSME is in the process of amending the KVIC Act, 1956. In this regard, this Ministry is being consulted by various central Ministries/Department. The amendments proposed in the KVIC Act, 1956, are based on the following three key pillars:
(a) Diversification and adoption of New Technology
(b) Formalization of Village Industries
(c) Inclusivity and Institutional Strengthening

(a) Diversification and Adoption of New Technology
(i) Make provision for the adoption of any emerging form of fabric in the KVI Sector.
(ii) Adoption of clean energy, like Solar energy, in Khadi production while retaining the sector's authenticity.

(b) Formalization of Village Industries
(i) Align the "Village Industry" definition with the micro-enterprise classification under the MSME Act, based on investment and turnover thresholds.
(ii) Update the Schedule of Village Industries to allow inclusion of emerging activities aligned with market trends, rural entrepreneurship, and technology-led enterprises.
(iii) To make provisions to facilitate Udyam Registration for village industries and align the Village Industries with the National Industrial Classification Code (NIC Code).

(c) Inclusivity and Institutional Strengthening
(i) To include representation of women, weaker sections (SC/ST/OBC) and contemporary expertise in the Commission’s composition
(ii) To open up the Khadi Sector for new entities.
(iii) To include the rule making power in the functions of the Commission.

The Khadi segment is altogether a separate form of building clothing for the Nation for long. We need to fuel this segment with maximum available resources by erecting new plants in rural areas themselves, encouraging various forms of clothing from banana trunk, sugar cane waste, and many others. People are willing to avail products in those areas, all that is price. We need to work on attractive pricing with the latest designs. The planning department should encourage more products into the market with a wider reach by throwing away mass-produced products and replacing them with manual work. Khadi plays a major role in this replacement, and it is encouraged by everyone, too.

The amendments to the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) Act, 1956 are a crucial step toward modernizing India’s rural economy and empowering millions of artisans. Originally framed to promote self-reliance and traditional craftsmanship, the Act now requires reforms to align with digital, economic, and environmental changes. The proposed amendments aim to strengthen transparency, efficiency, and inclusivity by promoting digital governance, skill development, and easier access to finance for rural entrepreneurs. They emphasize sustainable and eco-friendly production methods, renewable energy use, and eco-conscious marketing of Khadi products. By connecting traditional artisans with e-commerce, startups, and modern design innovations, these reforms will help expand market access both in India and abroad. Moreover, the amendments focus on empowering women, youth, and marginalized communities while ensuring better coordination between central and state agencies.

At the time of KVIC enacted , traditional cold pressed edible oil producer (bull driven instead of electric motor) got concession like exempt of tax upto Kg 100 of seeds per daby y.They were exempted sales tax.Such amendment would be necessary. Now , people brought 100 empty tins (capacity Kg 15) vehicle must bring evidences ,,,,,gst officials asked bill ,,,,,,, Goods vehicles affected both by police and gst or cess officials,,,,,, Other thing,traders got notice from gst officials in rural areas in order to to show genuine their filings.Each traders file history gst through his auditor,,,,,Traders may confused ,,, So these things would be solved smartly,,, very nice
