What is the Maximum Industrial Subsidy Available for Manufacturing Units in Maharashtra?

Eligible manufacturers can claim up to 100% of Fixed Capital Investment (FCI) as Maharashtra state government subsidy across MIISP, PSI 2019, and sector-specific policies. Benefits include SGST refund (Industrial Promotion Subsidy), 100% stamp duty exemption, 5% interest subsidy on term loans, ₹0.50–₹1 per unit power tariff concession, electricity duty waiver and capital subsidy. Quantum is structured by zone (Group A through D+, Aspirational Districts and Naxal-affected areas), with eligibility periods ranging from 7 to 10 years. MIISP 2025 (Maharashtra Industries, Investment & Services Policy) was notified on 31 December 2025 and replaces PSI 2019 as the primary industrial incentive framework. Units that commenced effective steps under PSI 2019 continue under that scheme; new units apply under MIISP 2025.

Six Maharashtra Industrial Policies

6 Maharashtra Industrial Subsidy Schemes & Policies for Manufacturers

Maharashtra operates six concurrent industrial subsidy schemes for manufacturers and service enterprises, making the Maharashtra government subsidy regime the most layered in India. Each addresses a distinct sector or investment profile. Bizastra structures applications across the optimal combination – most clients qualify under two or three policies simultaneously. For a state-by-state comparison of industrial incentive regimes, see our state government industrial subsidy schemes overview.

What You Receive

Geography Decides Quantum

Zone Classification & IPS Cap – Where You Invest Decides How Much You Get

Maharashtra is divided into eight zone categories based on industrial development. The less developed the area, the higher the subsidy ceiling. Choosing the right MIDC / industrial estate is often the difference between 30% and 100% IPS cap on your FCI. Our complete Maharashtra zone classification guide explains how each district maps and which talukas qualify for the highest caps.

Zone	Description / Example Districts	Relative IPS Cap (Indicative)	Eligibility Years
Group A	Industrially developed — Mumbai, Mumbai Suburban, Thane (Urban), Pune (Urban)	Limited / sector-only	7 yrs
Group B	Some development — Pune (suburban), Nashik (urban), Aurangabad (urban)	Lower tier	7 yrs
Group C	Less developed — parts of Nashik, Aurangabad, Kolhapur, Sangli	Standard tier	7 yrs
Group D	Lesser developed — Solapur, Jalgaon, Latur, Ahmednagar	Higher tier	10 yrs
Group D+	Least developed — Hingoli, Parbhani, Buldhana, parts of Vidarbha	High tier	10 yrs
No-Industry Districts	Notified districts with no major industry base	Very high tier	10 yrs
Naxal-Affected	Gadchiroli, parts of Gondia, Chandrapur	Among highest	10 yrs
Aspirational Districts	Osmanabad, Gadchiroli, Washim, Nandurbar	Highest tier	10 yrs

Caps shown qualitatively (higher in less-developed zones). Exact per-zone IPS percentage depends on FCI band, sector, thrust-sector status and the current Government Resolution — verify case-by-case before relying on any figure. Thrust-sector units — covering electronics component manufacturers (ECMS), EV, Food Processing and Green Energy — receive 20% additional fiscal assistance and 2 extra years of eligibility above standard zone caps.
