the flag is manufactured by the khadi unit of kkgss. the khadi and village industries commission has certified kkgss as the sole manufacturer and supplier of the indian flag to the entire country. there are 100 specialist spinners and 100 weavers employed in making the flag. the flag is manufactured conforming to the standards laid down by the bureau of indian standards (bis). the cloth needed for the flag is sourced from kkgss's unit in bagalkot and divided into three lots, each of the lots to be dyed with one of the three major colors in the indian flag. after dyeing, the cloth is cut in the required size and shape and the blue chakra (wheel) with 24 equally spaced spokes is printed on the white cloth. finally, the three pieces are stitched together to make the indian flag. about 60 japanese sewing machines are used to maintain precision while stitching. some of the critical confirmation criteria include that the width and length of the entire flag should be in the ratio 3:2 and that the "chakra" needs to be printed on both the sides of the flag with both of these prints perfectly matched, like two hands joined palm to palm. each lot shipped is subjected to an inspection by bis and any issue with a single flag could result in the whole lot being rejected. the flags are manufactured in nine sizes, with the smallest one being 6 × 4 inches (150 x 100 mm) and the biggest one being 21 x 14 feet (6300 x 4200 mm).

when the indian flag is flown on indian territory along with other national flags, the general rule is that the indian flag should be the starting point of all flags. when flags are placed in a straight line, the rightmost flag (leftmost to the observer facing the flag) is the indian flag, followed by other national flags in alphabetical order. when placed in a circle, the indian flag is the first point and is followed by other flags alphabetically. in such placement, all other flags should be of approximately the same size with no other flag being larger than the indian flag. each national flag should also be flown from its own pole and no flag should be placed higher than another. in addition to being the first flag, the indian flag may also be placed within the row or circle alphabetically. when placed on crossed poles, the indian flag should be in front of the other flag, and to the right (observer's left) of the other flag. the only exception to the preceding rule is when it is flown along with the flag of the united nations, which may be placed to the right of the indian flag.
