'''Maharashtra State Textile Corporation (MSTC)''' is a [[limited company]] owned by [[Government of Maharashtra|Maharashtra State]]. It was established on 6 September 1966, having its head office at [[Mumbai]]. Their stated purpose was to take over ailing privately owned [[textile mill]]s, which were being closed down and make those mills more productive and also to start new mills in industrially undeveloped parts of the state.<ref>[http://www.mstc.co.in/ MSCTC Ltd]</ref><br />
<br />
MSCT took over 26 ailing [[textile mill]]s, 19 of which were later turned over to [[National Textile Corporation]].<ref name=mm/> It presently holds Pratap Mills, [[Amalner]], Vijay Mills, [[Badnera]], Shree Shahu Chhatrapati Mills, [[Kolhapur]], Narsinggirji Mills, [[Solapur]], Pulgaon Cotton Mills, [[Pulgaon]], Western India Mills at [[Mumbai]] and the [[Empress Mill, Nagpur]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Nagpur's 110-year-old Empress Mills closed down|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/Nagpurs-110-year-old-Empress-Mills-closed-down/articleshow/22267717.cms|accessdate=3 March 2017|agency=Times of India|date=15 September 2002}}</ref><ref name=mm/><br />

<br />
The state government closed down all the mills under MSTC in 2001, due to running in losses over the years and presently there are no functioning [[textile mill]]s under the corporation, however, company holds the lands of these mills.<ref name=mm>[http://www.mstc.co.in/mills%20details.htm MSTC Mills details]</ref><br />
