About this scheme
Power consumption tends to be the heaviest recurring expense for a small manufacturing unit, and the Industrial and Investment Policy of Mizoram 2025 returns part of that outlay. The refund covers 60% of total power consumption expenditure for micro enterprises, 25% for small enterprises and 15% for medium enterprises.
A ceiling of Rs 20 lakh per annum applies to each tier. The benefit remains available for five years, counted from the date production commences.
Disbursement is linked to actual metered consumption. Retain your energy bills accordingly.
