It is an apex organization under Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, with regard to khadi and village industries within India, which seeks to - "plan, promote, facilitate, organise and assist in the establishment and development of khadi and village industries in the rural areas in coordination with other agencies engaged in rural development wherever necessary.". In April 1957, it took over the work of former All India Khadi and Village Industries Board.

The Commission has three main objectives which guide its functioning. These are -
Special Set:
