About this scheme

Under Clause 3.4.4.i of the Meghalaya Industrial and Investment Promotion Policy (MIIPP) 2024, micro industrial units can claim a further 10% incentive. This applies to the cost of factory building and plant for manufacturing, as well as to other durable physical assets and machinery.

To qualify, the majority shareholder must be a physically challenged person or an individual belonging to another special category, and must be domiciled in Meghalaya.

This benefit is additional to the standard State Capital Investment Incentive that micro units receive under the same policy.
