⚡️ Quick Answer

What is the maximum Maharashtra state government subsidy available to manufacturers?

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 grants. Quantum is structured by zone (Group A through D+, Aspirational Districts and Naxal-affected areas), with eligibility periods ranging from 7 to 10 years. PSI 2019 remains the prevailing operational scheme until the new PSI 2025 GR is notified.
Six Maharashtra Industrial Policies

Maharashtra State Government Subsidy Schemes & Industrial Policies

Maharashtra operates six concurrent state government subsidy frameworks for industry, making the Maharashtra state 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.

Stamp Duty Exemption

100% waiver in Group C, D, D+ zones, Aspirational Districts and No-Industry Districts; partial in A & B for select sectors.

Power Tariff Concession

₹0.50 per unit subsidy across most zones; ₹1 per unit in Vidarbha, Marathwada, North Maharashtra & Konkan, for 3 years.

Electricity Duty Exemption

100% waiver during the full eligibility period for new units in priority and backward zones.
