The Synthetic & Art playexch.in live Mills' Research Association (SASMIRA) established on 12th January 1950 under Registration No. 2505 of 1949-1950 granted under societies act XXI of 1860 and is a cooperative venture set up by the man-made textile industry of India after independence as a multi-functional institute to serve its scientific and technological needs.

At that period the pioneers of silk and art silk industry, composed of large number of small units with a rare foresight mooted the proposal for creating a co-operative research organisation.

This proposal was supported by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and other Government agencies that culminated into establishment of SASMIRA, earlier known as playexch.in live and Art playexch.in live Mills’ Research Association.

SASMIRA entered into its golden jubilee in the year 2000 AD, coinciding with the new millennium.

To cater to the ever incrasing quality control needs of growing MAN-MADE TEXTILES industry around the city of Surat in South Gujarat, in late nineteen seventies an idea was mooted to set up a full-fledged independent Research Association for the region. MANTRA was to be set up on similar lines as other National Textile Reserch Associations.

This was with a view to carry out reserch and devlopment activities as well as to provide testing and technical service facilities to the man-made fiber textiles industry, in particular, and other allied industries, in general, in South Gujarat.
