Chhattisgarh Project Report Subsidy — ₹5L for Recognized Startups — Frequently Asked Questions

The ceiling is ₹5 lakh, and the amount is worked out as 1% of your approved fixed capital investment. If 1% of that investment figure comes to less than ₹5 lakh, the lower amount is what you receive.

Eligibility is limited to Recognized Startup Units in Chhattisgarh, and the claim has to be tied to costs that count within your approved fixed capital investment. A venture that is not formally recognised as a startup unit under the state framework cannot claim this benefit.

It reimburses what you spend on preparing your project report. That expense is treated as part of the approved fixed capital investment for setting up or expanding your unit, which is why the subsidy is calculated against the investment figure.

Neither. This is a subsidy, not a loan and not an investment, so the amount is non-repayable once your claim is approved and no stake in your company is handed over in return.

No fixed closing date applies. The incentive runs through the tenure of the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30, and claims are accepted on a rolling basis, so you can file as and when you incur the eligible expense.

You must follow the application format, submission process and other procedural requirements set out in the Industrial Development Policy 2024-30 and its guidelines.

You will need your startup recognition certificate, proof of the fixed capital investment, details of what the project report cost, and a formal application in the prescribed format. Supporting documents should be gathered before you file, since verification depends on them.

The Department of Industries reviews your paperwork to confirm three things: that you are a Recognized Startup Unit, that the fixed capital investment is approved and genuine, and that the project report costs you cite are legitimate. The decision rests on how complete and accurate the application is and how closely it follows the policy clauses.
