West Bengal Textile Incentive Scheme: Capital Subsidy up to ₹500 Cr — Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility turns on four things: what the unit produces, when it began producing, who owns it, and whether the project has already been backed by a lender.

• Activity: the unit must be engaged in the manufacturing and processing of textiles, apparel or technical textiles products.
• Production start date: commercial production must have started on or after 1 April 2022.
• Ownership: private sector units, co-operative sector units, joint sector units, and companies or undertakings owned or managed by the State Government can all apply.
• Lender sanction: the project must have been approved and sanctioned by a Central Financial Institution, a Commercial Bank or a State Financial Institution.
• Certificates: the unit must hold a Registration Certificate, a Date of Commencement Certificate and an Eligibility Certificate issued by the Directorate of Textiles.

The scheme is meant for units setting up operations within West Bengal. Its stated criteria do not call for DPIIT recognition or MSME registration — the certification requirement runs through the Directorate of Textiles instead.

West Bengal Textile Incentive Scheme: Capital Subsidy up to ₹500 Cr is open to startups at the revenue stage working in industrial goods and textiles leather. The programme is targeted at startups registered in West Bengal.
