The appointment was formally communicated by ICIM Chairman Mr. Satendra Singh, who praised Mr. Thukral’s "outstanding leadership in apparel manufacturing and exports" and his sustained contributions to India’s industrial advancement.

The Indian Council of Industrial Management, a government-supported and ISO-certified institution, plays a pivotal role in shaping India’s industrial compliance and training architecture. Its key focus areas include Occupational Health and Safety (OHS), Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH), ESG frameworks, Buyer Social Audits, and Industrial Waste Management.
As a Governing Body member, Mr. Thukral will contribute to ICIM’s mission of fostering a compliant, ethical, and forward-thinking industrial environment. His appointment is expected to enhance the council’s ability to align regulatory frameworks with evolving industry needs.
“Mr. Thukral’s depth of experience in manufacturing, export promotion, and institution-building makes him an invaluable addition to ICIM,” said Mr. Satendra Singh. “His involvement will further elevate our institutional impact and serve as an inspiration to industry stakeholders nationwide.”
This milestone is not only a personal achievement for Mr. Thukral but also a moment of pride for the industrial community of Noida and the broader NCR region. It highlights the growing national recognition of Noida’s leadership in manufacturing and export-oriented growth.
Mr. Thukral’s entry into ICIM comes at a crucial juncture, as India prioritizes skill development, worker welfare, and ESG-aligned industrial transformation. His guidance is expected to accelerate initiatives that bridge the gap between industry and policy.
With this strategic inclusion, ICIM reaffirms its commitment to working alongside visionary leaders to build a sustainable, compliant, and inclusive industrial future—strengthening the bridge between public institutions and industry pioneers.
