Located at the mouth of the Tapi River, the city has transformed from a plague-hit city in 1994 to one of India's cleanest and fastest-growing urban centres. The diamond cutting and polishing industry employs over 8 lakh workers in Surat, processing diamonds worth billions of dollars annually. The city's textile market, centred around Surat's Ring Road, is the largest man-made fabric market in India.
