Tool & Gauge Manufacturers Association appoints DK Sharma as its new president

DK Sharma, executive vice-president and business head of Godrej Tooling, has been appointed president of the Tool & Gauge Manufacturers Association of India (TAGMA India). This appointment follows the recently held Annual General Meeting in Bangalore.

TAGMA India is a non-profit organisation, which has been actively promoting the tooling industry since its inception in 1990.

The new executive council is upbeat about pursuing major initiatives such as the setting up of the TAGMA Centre of Excellence and Training (TAGMA CET) and TAGMA Common Engineering Facility Centre (TAGMA CEFC), at Chakan, Pune, with requisite support from the Department of Heavy Industries, government of India. Once the maiden project is established, it is understood the government has asked TAGMA to set up similar centres, across India.

TAGMA is also making significant and successful efforts in bringing the tool-making fraternity closer to OEMs, by organising International Tooling Summits as also Die and Mould Exhibitions, both of which have witnessed overwhelming international participation.
