About Us :
Cottage and Rural Industries department activities were initially functioning through Registrar of Cooperative Societies, Gujarat state, Gandhi nagar.

But due to extent of activities, separate setup was required for execution and hence Industries, Mines and Power department(Government of Gujarat) has established new department at state level by issuing resolution of sanctioning the post of “Directorate of Cottage and Industrial Cooperatives.”

Afterwards the post head of the department was sanctioned as “Commissionerate of Cottage and Rural Industries” by issuing resolution from Industries and Mines department.
