About this scheme
The Government of Chhattisgarh operates a scheme that reimburses part of the cost of international certifications for exporters of advanced technology products. Units manufacturing Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Computing products are eligible.
Certification fees are reimbursed at a significant proportion, which lowers the expense borne by enterprises seeking to meet international standards. The scheme forms part of the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30.
Its stated purposes are to improve the global competitiveness of local enterprises, support innovation, and open market access for high-tech goods. The scheme is intended to help position Chhattisgarh as a centre for advanced manufacturing and technological exports, and to contribute to the state's economic growth and industrial diversification.

How applications are assessed
The Department of Industries, Government of Chhattisgarh, generally puts each application through a detailed verification exercise. This begins with screening to confirm that documents such as commercial export certificates and turnover proofs have been furnished and satisfy the criteria, followed by checks on the unit's eligibility — the ₹50 crores per product annual turnover threshold and whether the products fall under AI, Robotics or Computing.
The international certification fees put forward for reimbursement are then assessed to confirm they sit within approved categories and limits. A committee may examine the applications for conformity with the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30 before the subsidy is finally approved and disbursed.
