About this scheme
The DPR Preparation Cost Reimbursement scheme operates under the Sustainable Industrial Policy Ladakh 2022-27. It applies across the Union Territory and is intended to support industrial growth there.
New industrial units, along with existing units carrying out substantial expansion, can claim reimbursement for a significant share of what they spend on preparing a Detailed Project Report (DPR). The scheme is meant to ease the upfront financial load such units face.
By covering part of the DPR cost, the scheme encourages businesses to hire professional consultants for project planning and feasibility studies. This kind of advance planning matters for executing industrial projects successfully and for their long-term viability.
The policy and this incentive within it aim to build a vibrant industrial ecosystem, promote local entrepreneurship and drive economic diversification in Ladakh, contributing to sustainable development and employment generation in the region.

How applications are assessed
The Industries Department, Government of Ladakh, evaluates applications for DPR Preparation Cost Reimbursement through several stages. Applications received are first checked for completeness and whether they meet the basic eligibility conditions.
A review committee then examines the documents to establish that the applicant qualifies as an eligible industrial unit, whether new or expanding, to confirm the project investment meets the ₹25 Lakh minimum, and to verify the amount spent on preparing the DPR, including scrutiny of consultant invoices and payment proofs. Approval of claims rests on the merits of each application and on strict adherence to the Sustainable Industrial Policy Ladakh 2022-27. Once final approval is granted, the reimbursement is disbursed.
