How to Apply for Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Udyog Uday Yojana — ₹5L SME Exchange Subsidy

There is no competitive round here, no ranking of applicants and no shortlist. What an application goes through is a verification gate.

Once submitted on the Investor Facilitation Portal, the application is examined by officials of the relevant department. Four things are checked:

• whether the applicant genuinely qualifies as an SC/ST-led micro, small or medium enterprise;
• whether the equity capital raise on an SME Exchange actually took place;
• whether the filing happened inside the one-year window that starts from the listing date;
• whether the expenditure being claimed is backed by the supporting documents and fits within scheme guidelines.

Only enterprises that clear all of this — genuinely eligible businesses that have already completed the SME Exchange listing — receive the financial support.
