Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu Government Subsidy Schemes

Every capital subsidy, employment incentive and skill-development reimbursement relevant to this UT — including the honest fact that the Investment Promotion Scheme, genuinely detailed and currently active, runs only until 19 May 2027, and the distinctive administrative history of two formerly-separate UTs merged into one in 2020. We map what's real, and how long it lasts.

The DNH & DD Register

Eight entries, from a UT built by merging two separate administrations in 2020.

The Investment Promotion Scheme is genuinely detailed and currently active — extended to run until 19 May 2027, with under a year of runway remaining as of this compilation. We map its capital subsidy and sub-schemes alongside the UT's distinctive two-region administrative history.

01
Scheme 01
Investment Promotion Scheme (IPS) — Capital Investment Subsidy
Extended to run until 19 May 2027
State Flagship Valid until 19 May 2027
Capital Investment Subsidy
25%
on investment in plant, machinery, and buildings for new MSMEs
Originally launched 3 July 2015 for a 5-year period, then extended from 20 May 2022 to run until 19 May 2027 — meaning it currently has under a year of runway remaining as of this compilation. This pattern of extension suggests a further renewal is plausible, but confirm current status and any successor-scheme plans directly with the Department of Industries before committing a client to a multi-year project timeline around this rate.
Eligibility
  • New or expanding/diversifying/modernising MSME and Textile Sector units in the UT
Application & Documents
  • Applied through the Department of Industries, U.T. Administration of DNH & DD
02
Scheme 02
Incentive For Local Employment
A genuinely specific, per-employee recruitment incentive
IPS Sub-Scheme Valid until 19 May 2027
Recruitment Incentive
₹3,00,000
per 20 local persons employed, cap ₹15,00,000 per eligible unit
A one-time incentive, not recurring — recruited employees must hold a domicile certificate for the UT of DNH & DD and be above 18 years of age. Worth flagging early to clients planning their hiring approach, since the incentive is tied to local-resident recruitment specifically.
Eligibility
  • Industrial units in DNH & DD recruiting local, domicile-certified employees above 18 years
Application & Documents
  • Online registration through the official IPS portal, with domicile certificates for recruited staff

75% of your training costs reimbursed — but only if you claim within 6 months of finishing.

— a genuine deadline clients routinely miss without a reminder
03
Scheme 03
Assistance For Entrepreneurship Under Skill Development
A real deadline worth flagging proactively
IPS Sub-Scheme Valid until 19 May 2027
Training Fee Reimbursement
75%
of entrepreneurship/skill-development training course fees, cap ₹1.5 lakh
Entrepreneurs must apply for reimbursement within 6 months of completing their training programme — this deadline is easy to miss without proactive reminders, since claimants are often mid-way through setting up their business at that point. Build a calendar reminder into the client engagement from day one.
Eligibility
  • New or expanding MSME units, commercial production commenced 20 May 2022 – 19 May 2027
Application & Documents
  • Claim within 6 months of training completion; Udyam registration required
04
Scheme 04
Stamp Duty Exemption & Electricity Duty Concession
Ongoing operational savings alongside the capital subsidy
State Flagship Valid until 19 May 2027
Stamp Duty Exemption
50%
on eligible industrial documentation
Electricity Duty Concession
Concessional Rate
for eligible MSME units — confirm current percentage
These are ongoing operational savings that complement the one-time Capital Investment Subsidy — worth quoting alongside it for a fuller total-cost picture, though the exact electricity duty percentage wasn't independently confirmed in the sources reviewed and should be checked directly.
Eligibility
  • New/expanding MSME units per the broader IPS eligibility criteria
Application & Documents
  • Applied through the Department of Industries alongside standard IPS documentation
05
Scheme 05
Concessional Industrial Plots
Access via the UT's industrial infrastructure corporation
Infrastructure Access Ongoing
Access
Developed Industrial Plots
at concessional rates through the industrial corporation
Genuinely useful given Silvassa's established industrial belt — access to developed plots reduces the setup burden considerably compared to acquiring and developing raw land independently. Confirm current plot availability and rates directly, since these vary with inventory.
Eligibility
  • MSME units seeking developed industrial land in DNH & DD's industrial estates
Application & Documents
  • Applied through the UT's industrial infrastructure corporation directly
06
Scheme 06
Industrial Policy 2018
The broader framework underlying the IPS sub-schemes
State Framework Notified 2018, ongoing
Policy Objectives
Sustainable Industrialisation
employment generation, product competitiveness, export-oriented growth
The overarching policy framework that has genuinely contributed to the region's industrial expansion in textiles, basic metals, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals — worth citing for the strategic direction, while treating the IPS sub-schemes above as the concrete, actionable incentives.
Status
  • Notified 2018, remains the umbrella policy framework for the UT
Application & Documents
  • Concrete incentives delivered through IPS sub-schemes rather than direct application under this policy alone
07
Scheme 07
RAMP Programme
₹58.24 Cr in approved projects for the UT
Central-State Collaboration · Operative Ongoing since Sept 2023 LoU
RAMP-Approved Projects
₹58.24 Cr
approved for the UT
DNH & DD signed its RAMP Letter of Undertaking with the Ministry of MSME in September 2023 and submitted its Strategic Investment Plan on 17 December 2024 — a genuine, actively administered central-state channel worth prioritising alongside the IPS.
Eligibility
  • Eligible MSMEs per RAMP's DNH & DD-specific implementation criteria
Application & Documents
  • Coordinated through the local Industries Department and RAMP implementation cell

Scheme 08
Two Formerly-Separate UTs, Merged 2020
A structural fact worth explaining to every client
Regional Context Merged 26 January 2020
Merger Date
26 January 2020
Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu unified into one UT
Before this merger, these were two separate Union Territories with separate administrations — and the two regions retain genuinely different economic character: Silvassa (Dadra & Nagar Haveli) has a larger industrial base focused on textiles and chemicals, while Daman & Diu skews toward pharmaceuticals, plastics and electrical equipment, with notably higher literacy (87.1% vs 76.2%). A client's ideal location within the UT may depend heavily on which sector they're in.
Context
  • Silvassa: textiles, chemicals-focused industrial belt; Daman/Diu: pharma, plastics, electrical equipment
Recommendation
  • Ask which region a client is considering before assuming uniform infrastructure or sector fit

A genuinely detailed scheme, already once extended, with under a year of runway left
The Investment Promotion Scheme has real history — launched 2015, extended in 2022 to run until 19 May 2027. That extension pattern is reassuring, but as of this compilation there's under a year of confirmed runway remaining, with no next extension formally announced yet. If a client's project timeline extends past May 2027, or if they're planning based on multi-year subsidy disbursement, flag this directly rather than assuming automatic continuity — even though a further extension is plausible given the scheme's track record.

DNH & DD-specific questions

What founders ask before filing in DNH & DD.

Uncertain, and worth flagging directly. The current extension runs only until 19 May 2027 — under a year of confirmed runway as of this compilation. The scheme has been extended before (2015 to 2020, then 2022 to 2027), which is a reassuring pattern, but no further extension has been formally announced yet. Build this timing risk into the client's planning conversation rather than assuming automatic continuity.
Yes — these are two distinct sub-schemes under the same Investment Promotion Scheme umbrella, addressing different things (capital cost versus local hiring), so both can genuinely be claimed together. Just make sure the recruited employees actually hold DNH & DD domicile certificates before promising the ₹15 lakh employment-incentive cap to a client.
Genuinely urgent — the 75% training-fee reimbursement (cap ₹1.5 lakh) must be claimed within 6 months of completing the training programme. This is one of the more commonly-missed deadlines we see, since clients are often mid-setup and not thinking about paperwork at that point. Set a reminder the day training completes, not when the business itself launches.
