NEW DELHI: President Pranab Mukherjee will inaugurate the India International Trade Fair (IITF), 2015, here on November 14 in which about 7,000 firms from India and abroad are expected to participate.

'Make in India' is the theme of the annual flagship event of the India Trade Promotion Organisation (ITPO).

Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will preside over the inaugural function of the fair.

"Extending India's global appeal for investment in diverse sectors, 'Smart Cities', 'Digital India', model villages, Clean Ganga Mission and 'Jan Dhan Yojana' will be depicted in the central and state pavilions," ITPO said in a statement.

The fair would provide a platform to SME exporters, entrepreneurs and investors. Goa and Jharkhand are partner states and the 'Focus State' is Madhya Pradesh.

Besides domestic companies, firms from countries including Afghanistan, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Iran, ??Pakistan??, Russia, South Africa, South Korea and UAE would showcase their products in the fair.

It also said that new and young entrepreneurs have been provided space at 50 per cent discount of the normal tariff.

"The theme in IITF is 'Make in India' which is to publicise the infrastructure of every state and the capabilities of Indian exhibitors to attract investments in India through this event," it said.

Entry of school children will also be allowed during the business days (November 14 to 18) as applicable during the public days.
