About this scheme
The Reimbursement of Stamp Duty scheme operates as an incentive under the Andhra Pradesh Textile Apparel & Garments Policy 2024-29 (AP TAG 4.0). Its purpose is to support industrial growth and investment in Andhra Pradesh by reducing the cost burden that comes with establishing or expanding industrial units.
Eligibility covers New Industrial Enterprises as well as those carrying out substantial Expansion/Diversification projects, spanning Micro through to Large enterprises. Under the scheme, a one-time reimbursement of 100% of stamp duty paid is available for specified real estate and financing transactions — namely land purchase, lease of land, shed or building, and charges tied to mortgages or hypothecations taken for term loans against assessed Fixed Capital Investment.
By covering these upfront costs, the Government of Andhra Pradesh aims to improve the investment climate, foster entrepreneurship and generate employment in the industrial sector, with particular focus on the textile and garment industry covered by the parent policy. The intent is to enable businesses to obtain required infrastructure and financing without being held back by heavy initial regulatory fees.
