Frequently asked questions

How much funding does the Rajasthan Employment Booster Scheme provide?

It provides an extra percentage on the Asset Creation Incentive you have already earned: 10% if your employment reaches 1.5x to under 2x the minimum threshold, 12.5% if it reaches 2x to under 2.5x, and 15% if it hits 2.5x or more. The state describes the rupee amount as varying, because the final figure is a percentage of your own ACI and therefore depends on the investment you have made.

Who is eligible to apply?

Service enterprises are the intended applicants, and the key condition is employment. Your business must generate jobs above the minimum threshold defined in the RIPS 2024 policy — the booster slabs start at 1.5 times that minimum, so simply clearing the floor is not enough to earn the top-up. Your asset creation and your headcount are both assessed, so you need records that back up both.

Is there a last date to apply?

No. Applications are rolling and the window stays open, so there is no deadline you need to race towards. You can apply once your asset creation and hiring figures are in place and can be documented.

How is the booster percentage actually calculated?

Your employment is measured as a multiple of the minimum threshold set in the RIPS 2024 policy, and that multiple places you in a slab. Between 1.5x and under 2x earns 10%, between 2x and under 2.5x earns 12.5%, and 2.5x or above earns 15%. Whatever slab you land in, that percentage is applied to your Asset Creation Incentive amount.

Does this scheme take equity in my company?

No. The Employment Booster is a cash subsidy from the Government of Rajasthan. It is non-repayable and non-dilutive — you do not give up any ownership stake, and you do not pay the money back.

How and where do I apply?

Applications for the booster are filed together with the Asset Creation Incentive claim, using the channels and forms prescribed in the official RIPS 2024 policy document (14514.pdf). That document carries the detailed instructions for service enterprises applying on employment generation grounds. The state's investment facilitation portal at rajnivesh.rajasthan.gov.in is the entry point for the process.

What documentation should I prepare?

You will need material that demonstrates two things: the asset creation behind your Asset Creation Incentive, and the number of new jobs your enterprise has generated. The employment figures must be enough to meet the threshold slabs for the booster you are claiming. The prescribed formats and any further paperwork are listed in the RIPS 2024 policy document.

Do I need DPIIT or MSME registration to apply?

The stated eligibility criteria for this incentive do not mention either registration. They focus on the applicant being a service enterprise that creates employment above the policy's minimum threshold. Since the detailed conditions live in the RIPS 2024 policy document, confirm there whether any registration or documentation requirement applies to your specific case.

Is the Employment Booster the same thing as the Asset Creation Incentive?

No — the booster sits on top of it. The Asset Creation Incentive is the base incentive you qualify for on the strength of your investment; the Employment Booster is an additional percentage applied to that ACI once your job creation crosses the prescribed multiples of the minimum threshold. You apply for the two together.

Are any service sub-sectors excluded from the scheme?

The scheme speaks of service enterprises as a whole and does not narrow itself down to particular sub-sectors in the material available. If your service business falls into a specialised category, check the full RIPS 2024 policy document for any exclusions or preferred categories before you build your application around this booster.
