About this scheme
The Government of Rajasthan's Rajasthan Investment Promotion Scheme (RIPS) 2024 includes this incentive. It applies to eligible Regional Anchors and Sectoral Anchors, which are Service Enterprises. The incentive addresses energy costs by supporting captive power generation.
Banking, wheeling and transmission charges for running captive power plants are waived or reimbursed in full. Enterprises are encouraged to adopt self-sufficient energy arrangements, lowering operating costs and improving competitiveness.
The benefit period matches the disbursal period of a separately selected Asset Creation Incentive. Energy generated must be used only for the enterprise's own consumption; third-party sales are not permitted.

How to apply
Under the wider Rajasthan Investment Promotion Scheme (RIPS) 2024, this waiver or reimbursement is claimed as part of a single, consolidated application. Regional Anchors and Sectoral Anchors (Service Enterprises) must fold their claim for this benefit into their main RIPS 2024 incentive application. That application goes to the designated state authority, usually the Bureau of Investment Promotion or another nodal agency in Rajasthan. Supporting papers must cover detailed plans for the captive power plant, proof that it operates as a captive consumption unit, and compliance with every policy provision. The submission then moves to review, where it is checked against the scheme's eligibility and operational guidelines.
How applications are assessed
Under the Rajasthan Investment Promotion Scheme 2024, the concerned government department or a dedicated committee set up for the purpose assesses each application for the Banking, Wheeling and Transmission Charges Waiver/Reimbursement. The review covers the applicant's standing as a Regional or Sectoral Anchor, the captive power plant's technical specifications and operational particulars, and strict confirmation that the energy generated serves captive consumption alone, with third-party sales ruled out.
A further check determines whether the applicant qualifies for the matching Asset Creation Incentive, since the period over which that incentive is disbursed has a direct bearing on how long this waiver/reimbursement remains available.
