What subsidy might apply under PMEGP?

Indicative PMEGP-style margin money rates on this site run up to 35% of project cost, depending on beneficiary category and rural vs urban area. This is not a guarantee of subsidy, sanction, or bank finance — verify current guidelines before applying.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Land and Construction Delays

    Securing a suitable plot and obtaining building permits can take 3–6 months, impacting the start‑up timeline.

  • Machinery Lead Time

    CNC machines and tooling often have 4–8 week lead times; ordering early is essential to avoid production gaps.

  • Raw Material Price Volatility

    Aluminum alloy prices can fluctuate; lock‑in contracts or hedging may be needed to maintain cost predictability.

  • Compliance with Environmental Clearance

    Metalworking generates hazardous waste; obtaining environmental clearance and setting up proper disposal is mandatory.

  • Actual margin money and contribution depend on current PMEGP guidelines and implementing agency.
  • Land cost is generally excluded from project cost under the scheme.
  • Full-capacity revenue is estimated at 2× project cost (₹23.4 L) — adjust it to your own numbers.

Indicative only — actual bank DSCR calculations add back depreciation; treat this as a sense-check, not a bank figure. Verify with your CA/bank before applying.
