About this scheme
The Transport Subsidy for Export Units is offered under the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30. It applies to export-oriented pharmaceutical manufacturing units based in Chhattisgarh, and is meant to improve their ability to compete in international markets.
Under the scheme, financial support is provided towards logistics costs. Specifically, it reimburses the cost of moving goods from the manufacturing location within the state to the designated port of export. Products connected to mining are not covered.
The purpose of the reimbursement is to lower the cost burden on pharmaceutical units in the state and to encourage them to export more.

- **Read the official policy document first:** Work through the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30 in full before proceeding. It is the authoritative source for every incentive, setting out the eligibility criteria, the paperwork required, and the sequence of steps for filing a claim. - **Assemble the supporting documents:** Collect every document needed to back your claim. Ordinarily this covers your registration as an Export Unit and as a Pharma Sector entity within Chhattisgarh, full records of your manufacturing activity, and authenticated invoices for transport charges from your factory to the port of export. Financial records must show government duties and taxes separately, since these cannot be reimbursed. - **File your claim:** Submit according to the mechanism described in the policy document — either through an online portal run by the Department of Industries or in person at a designated government office. Check that your claim matches the prescribed formats, deadlines and annual submission windows, so that processing is not delayed and reimbursement remains admissible.
