About this scheme
The Chhattisgarh SME Listing Reimbursement Scheme operates under the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30. It incentivises Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the state to list on recognised SME Stock Exchanges. The scheme provides financial relief against the significant expenses of a public listing, thereby lowering the entry barrier for firms aiming to access capital markets.
This support enables eligible businesses to raise funds, improve their market profile, and strengthen their credibility. By easing the cost burden, the initiative encourages local enterprises to pursue growth and expansion, connect with a wider base of investors, and contribute to the state's economic progress.
