Chhattisgarh Technology Purchase Subsidy — 50% Back, Up to ₹10 Lakh — Frequently Asked Questions

The scheme reimburses 50% of the amount an enterprise spends on a qualifying technology purchase, capped at ₹10 lakh. So if the eligible spend is large enough, the most an enterprise can receive back is ₹10 lakh.

It is a subsidy, meaning it works as a reimbursement rather than an investment. The state returns a share of money the enterprise has already spent on technology. No equity is taken in the business, and there is nothing to repay — it is a non-dilutive incentive.

Enterprises registered in Chhattisgarh that have purchased technology for their operations. On the eligibility side, the focus is on the enterprise's registration in the state plus the source of the technology purchased.

The purchase must be from the National Research Development Corporation (NRDC) or from another recognised Government research centre. Buying the same technology from any other kind of vendor does not qualify for the reimbursement.

Half of it — 50% of the amount spent on the eligible technology. Combined with the ₹10 lakh ceiling, this means larger purchases are reimbursed at 50% only up to that cap.

There is no fixed closing date. The subsidy operates on a rolling basis as part of the ongoing Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30, so applications can be submitted as and when a qualifying purchase is made.

The available details do not list DPIIT recognition or MSME registration as a condition for this incentive. What is specified is that the enterprise must be registered in Chhattisgarh and that the technology must be sourced from NRDC or another recognised Government research centre.

Applicants are expected to file a detailed application form along with proof of the enterprise's registration and operational status. The claim also needs invoices and payment receipts for the technology purchased, plus official documentation from NRDC or the relevant Government research centre confirming the technology acquisition.

Claims follow the application process laid down in the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30, and submission is handled through the state's official portal, available at https://swsportal.cgstate.gov.in/login/. The implementing authority publishes the required document list and any processing details.

The implementing authority of the policy reviews each application. It verifies the documents, confirms the enterprise is genuine, checks that the technology was bought from an eligible NRDC or Government research centre, confirms the claim meets all eligibility conditions and that the amount is accurate and within limits — after which the subsidy is approved for disbursement.
