Maharashtra Government Subsidy Schemes

Every capital subsidy, interest subvention and SGST reimbursement scheme currently active in Maharashtra — MIISP 2025 (successor to PSI 2019), its Services Sector track, and the sector-specific schemes (Textile, Startup, GCC, AI) — mapped clause by clause, with the zone classification that decides which one actually applies to your project.

The Maharashtra Register

Nine schemes, and which one actually fits your project.

Ordered by how often we use them in a filing — MIISP 2025 covers most manufacturing and services projects; sector-specific ones (textile, startup, GCC, AI) matter most once your project fits that category.

01
Scheme 01
MIISP 2025
Maharashtra Industries, Investment & Services Policy · successor to PSI 2019
State Flagship Valid till 30 Dec 2030
Industrial Promotion Subsidy
100%
of gross SGST on eligible in-state sales, capped as % of FCI by zone
Zone Cap (Group B/C example)
40–50%
of FCI, disbursed over 7–10 years
Interest Subsidy
5% p.a.
on term loan, min 7% effective rate borne by investor
Thrust sector exception: eligible thrust-sector units get a +20% Fixed Capital Rebate and 2 extra years of eligibility, on top of the standard zone-based cap.
Notified 31 Dec 2025, replacing PSI 2019. Zone classification (Group A/B/C/D/D+/No Industry District/Naxalism-Affected) is carried over unchanged from PSI 2019 — Mumbai/Pune sit in Group A (lowest rates), most of Vidarbha and Marathwada sit in D/D+ (highest rates). Capital subsidy disburses in two instalments: 60% after 12 months of production, 40% after 24 months.
Eligibility
  • Manufacturing enterprise under the MSMED Act 2006, or small industry with gross FCI up to ₹50 crore
  • New unit (effective step — land/shed acquisition, incorporation, MPCB consent — completed after notification) or existing unit expanding/diversifying
  • FCI includes land, building, plant & machinery, site development and technical know-how costs
Application & Documents
  • Applied through the unified 'Invest Maharashtra' / MAITRI portal
  • Udyam registration, project report with FCI breakup, MIDC allotment letter or land documents required
  • Expansion/diversification units get 75-80% of new-unit incentive quantum, with eligibility period reduced by 1 year
02
Scheme 02
Tech Upgradation & ZED Incentives
Technology, quality and cleaner-production support · stacks over MIISP
General MSME Ongoing — no fixed end date
Tech Upgradation
5%
on additional capital equipment, cap ₹25 lakh
Quality Certification
75%
cap ₹1 lakh
Patent Registration
75%
cap ₹10L national / ₹20L international
Also covers 25% subsidy (cap ₹5 lakh) for cleaner-production equipment and 75% reimbursement of water-audit costs. Primarily routed through ZED (Zero Defect Zero Effect) certification — get ZED-certified first, then claim these add-ons.
Eligibility
  • ZED-certified MSME (Bronze/Silver/Gold) — certification itself is separately subsidised
  • Claims apply to additional capital equipment, not the original project machinery
Application & Documents
  • Filed after ZED certification, through the Directorate of Industries
  • Invoice and installation proof of the new equipment required per claim

Group A gets the lowest rate. Group D+ gets the highest — for the identical project.

Scheme 04
Textile Policy 2023-28
Dept. of Textiles · spinning to garmenting value chain
Textile Till 2028 (policy period)

₹25,000 Cr
state-wide, over the policy's 5-year period
Employment Target
5 lakh
jobs targeted in the textile sector
Capital Subsidy Fund
₹148 Cr
earmarked specifically for textile capital subsidies
Capital subsidy disburses in two instalments — 60% after 12 months of commercial production, 40% after 24 months — faster than MIISP's general multi-year schedule. Layers on top of MIISP 2025's zone-based incentives rather than replacing them.
Eligibility
  • Spinning, weaving, knitting, processing and garmenting units registered under the policy
  • Cotton-growing-area units get placed focus per the policy's stated drivers
Application & Documents
  • Processed through the Directorate of Textiles alongside MIISP entitlement filing
  • Production-commencement certificate required to trigger the first 60% instalment
05
Scheme 05
Maharashtra Startup Policy 2025
MSInS · Maha-Fund
Startups Ongoing program
Maha-Fund
₹500 Cr
dedicated startup funding corpus
Startup Target
50,000
startups targeted under the policy
Entrepreneur Target
1.3 lakh
entrepreneurs to be supported statewide
Includes Innovation City and Startup Week initiatives. Register a Maharashtra Startup ID via the Maharashtra State Innovation Society (MSInS) to access this — separate from, but complementary to, central DPIIT recognition.
Eligibility
  • Startups registered with MSInS (Maharashtra Startup ID); DPIIT recognition strengthens eligibility
Application & Documents
  • Apply via the MSInS portal with a DPR/pitch deck (problem, validation, prototype, revenue model)
  • Credit-linked components coordinate through partnered incubators or lenders

GCC Target
400
new Global Capability Centres planned statewide

₹50,000 Cr
projected investment through the policy
Jobs Target
4 lakh
jobs expected to be created
GCC units also draw on the Services Sector Policy 2025 (Scheme 03) for EPF reimbursement and capital subsidy — this policy is the sector-specific wrapper, not a standalone separate incentive pool.
Eligibility
  • Global Capability Centres — captive back-office, tech, and shared-services operations for multinational parents
Application & Documents
  • Processed through the same MAITRI/Invest Maharashtra platform as MIISP 2025
07
Scheme 07

of AI adoption cost, for 5,000 MSMEs
Investment Target
₹10,000 Cr
projected investment through the Maha AI Mission
Jobs Target
1.5 lakh+
opportunities targeted by 2031
Includes a 'Maha AI Tools Hub' central platform, 5 AI innovation-area cities, a State AI Data Exchange, and training for 2 lakh youth/professionals. Given this policy's recency, confirm the current application process with the DIC before relying on it for a live filing.
Eligibility
  • MSMEs adopting AI tools/implementation — exact sector and process criteria still being finalised
Application & Documents
  • Expected to route through the Maharashtra AI Mission once operational — recommend direct confirmation given the policy's early stage

Directorate of Industries · new micro-entrepreneur margin support
General MSME Ongoing — no fixed end date
Purpose
Margin money
bridges promoter contribution for small units
Route
Directorate of Industries
operated alongside PMEGP and District Industries Centre loans
One of three schemes the state's Directorate of Industries runs directly for small entrepreneurs (alongside PMEGP and the DIC Loan Scheme) — worth checking for very small projects where MIISP's zone-based incentives are proportionally less useful.
Eligibility
  • New small-scale entrepreneurs needing promoter-margin support for a bank loan
Application & Documents
  • Applied through the District Industries Centre alongside the bank loan application
09

Your subsidy % depends on your taluka's zone classification
MIISP 2025 grades every taluka into Group A, B, C, D, D+, No Industry District or Naxalism-Affected Area — the same taluka classification carried over from PSI 2019. Group A (Mumbai, Pune) gets the lowest incentive rates since it's already industrially developed; Group D/D+ and No-Industry Districts (parts of Vidarbha, Marathwada) get the highest — often 2-3× the subsidy for an identical project just by choosing the right taluka.

Maharashtra-specific questions

What founders ask before filing in Maharashtra.

Significantly. MIISP 2025 keeps PSI 2019's taluka classification (Group A through D+, No Industry District, Naxalism-Affected). A ₹5 Cr investment in Group B/C can carry an IPS cap of roughly 40% of FCI, disbursed over 7 years — the same project in Group A (Mumbai, Pune) gets meaningfully less. Checking taluka classification before finalising a site is one of the highest-leverage steps in the whole filing.
Broadly yes — MIISP 2025's interest subsidy is 5% p.a. (or the GoI-receivable rate, whichever is lower), with a minimum 7% effective interest borne by the investor, applied on term loans for capital assets. It doesn't scale by zone the way the capital-linked IPS does.
Maharashtra is one of the few states that formally treats services at par with manufacturing under MIISP 2025's Services Sector track — EPF reimbursement, rental support and R&D cost-sharing replace the SGST-reimbursement structure manufacturing gets, and Tier-2 city IT/BPO/KPO units can reach up to 120% of FCI in incentives, higher than most manufacturing slabs.
