Subsidy & Scheme Advisory

Government Subsidy Consultant in India

End-to-end help identifying, applying for, and actually receiving central and state government subsidies, capital grants, and interest concessions for your business anywhere in India.

Who needs a government subsidy consultant

Choosing the right scheme is the difference between a subsidy that reaches your bank account and an application that quietly lapses. As a government subsidy consultant in India, Aidwish helps proprietors, partnerships, LLPs, private limited companies, startups, and FPOs across every state find the central and state schemes they actually qualify for, prepare a bankable project report, file cleanly, and follow the file through sanction and disbursement. We work nationally from our Lucknow headquarters, so a manufacturer in Gujarat, a food processor in Punjab, or a service startup in Karnataka gets the same structured, deadline-aware handling.

India runs dozens of overlapping incentive programmes: credit-guarantee schemes like CGTMSE, capital-subsidy schemes like PMEGP and CLCSS, refinance products like Mudra and Stand-Up India, sector missions such as PMFME for food processing and various textile and technology upgradation schemes, plus every state's own MSME and industrial policy offering capital investment subsidy, interest subvention, SGST reimbursement, stamp-duty waiver, and electricity-duty concessions. Most business owners either don't know a scheme exists or apply to the wrong one and get rejected on a technicality.

Our job is to remove that guesswork. We map your entity type, sector, investment size, location (including special category and aspirational districts), employment plan, and existing borrowings against live scheme criteria, then tell you honestly which schemes are worth pursuing, in what sequence, and what each realistically pays. Where you are not eligible, we say so early rather than billing you to chase a dead file.

New entrepreneurs setting up a manufacturing, processing, or service unit who want to fund plant, machinery, or working capital through a subsidised loan such as PMEGP or Mudra.

Existing MSMEs planning expansion or technology upgradation who can claim capital subsidy under CLCSS or their state industrial policy.

Food processing units, bakeries, dairies, and micro food enterprises eligible for the PMFME scheme's credit-linked subsidy and branding support.

SC/ST and women entrepreneurs targeting Stand-Up India loans and reserved-category incentives.

Manufacturers who need collateral-free credit backed by the CGTMSE guarantee.

Companies relocating or expanding into a new state that offers investment subsidy, interest subvention, SGST reimbursement, stamp-duty and electricity-duty concessions.

Businesses whose earlier subsidy application was rejected or is stuck in the department and needs revival or a clean re-file.

What's included

Government Subsidy Consulting — end to end

Scheme identification & shortlisting

A structured review of your entity, sector, investment, location, and employment plan against live central and state schemes, with a clear shortlist of what you qualify for and what each is worth.

Eligibility mapping & gap fixing

We check each criterion — entity type, Udyam registration, promoter contribution, prior subsidies, unit location — and flag anything that would cause rejection so it is fixed before filing.

Project report / DPR preparation

A bankable Detailed Project Report with cost of project, means of finance, capacity, and realistic financial projections that satisfies both the bank appraisal and the scheme guidelines.

Application drafting & filing

Accurate preparation and online/offline submission on the relevant portal (PMEGP e-portal, Udyam, state single-window, PMFME portal, etc.) with all annexures in order.

Bank & department liaison

Follow-up with the sanctioning bank branch, KVIC/DIC/nodal agency, and state industries department to move the file, respond to queries, and prevent avoidable delays.

Claim & disbursement follow-up

After sanction, we track subsidy claim submission, physical verification if required, and the actual credit of subsidy to your loan or bank account.

Documentation checklist & support

A tailored document list plus help arranging quotations, GST/Udyam papers, EDP certificate, and other supporting records the scheme demands.

Multi-scheme sequencing

Where more than one benefit applies, we sequence applications so schemes stack legally instead of clashing or disqualifying each other.

Documents required

  • Identity and address proof of the promoter(s) — PAN, Aadhaar, and passport-size photographs.
  • Business constitution documents — proprietorship declaration, partnership deed, LLP agreement, or company incorporation certificate and MOA/AOA as applicable.
  • Udyam (MSME) registration and GST registration certificate, where already obtained.
  • Detailed Project Report or business plan with cost of project and means of finance (we prepare this).
  • Quotations for plant, machinery, and equipment, and details of the proposed premises (ownership or rent/lease deed).
  • Bank statements, existing loan sanction letters, and details of any subsidy availed earlier.
  • Category, qualification, or special certificates where relevant — SC/ST/OBC, EDP training, caste, or domicile certificate for state schemes.

Eligibility & who qualifies

  • A genuine, viable business or a serious plan to start one, with the entity type (proprietorship, partnership, LLP, company, FPO, SHG) permitted under the target scheme.
  • Sector and activity that the scheme covers — most schemes fund manufacturing, food processing, and eligible services, while trading and a defined negative list are often excluded.
  • Investment size, promoter contribution, and, where required, age, education, or category (SC/ST/OBC/women/minority) within the scheme's limits.
  • Statutory basics in place or obtainable — PAN, bank account, and usually Udyam (MSME) registration; some schemes require EDP training or a specific location such as a rural area or industrial estate.
Transparent pricing

Fees & what you pay

No hidden charges. Government fees are billed at actuals; our professional fee is agreed upfront.

ItemDetails
Government / statutory feesMost central subsidy schemes (PMEGP, CGTMSE, Mudra, CLCSS, Stand-Up India) charge no application fee to the beneficiary; costs are absorbed in the loan or scheme. Certain state single-window registrations, DPR bank-appraisal charges, or CGTMSE guarantee/annual fees may apply and are paid directly by you to the concerned authority or bank. We never mark up government fees.
Professional fee — scheme identification & eligibility reportA fixed advisory fee, typically in the range of Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 25,000 depending on the number of schemes and complexity of the business, for a documented eligibility and strategy report.
Professional fee — DPR / project report preparationTypically Rs. 8,000 to Rs. 50,000+ depending on project size, sector, and depth of financial projections required by the bank and scheme.
Professional fee — application filing & liaison (retainer)A monthly or per-application retainer, generally Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 30,000 per month or per case, covering filing, follow-up, and department coordination through the process.
Success-linked feeA pre-agreed percentage of the subsidy actually sanctioned/disbursed, payable only after you receive the benefit. The percentage is fixed in writing before we start — no hidden or surprise charges.

How it works

A clear, guided process

1. Understand your business

A detailed consultation on your entity, sector, investment plan, location, employment, and existing borrowings — the foundation for accurate scheme matching.

02

2. Map schemes & confirm eligibility

We shortlist the central and state schemes you genuinely qualify for, estimate the benefit of each, and fix any eligibility gaps before spending time on filing.

03

3. Prepare DPR & documents

We build a bankable project report and assemble every supporting document so the application is complete and appraisal-ready on first submission.

04

4. File, liaise & follow up

We submit on the correct portal and coordinate with the bank, nodal agency, and department, responding to queries to keep the file moving.

05

5. Track claim to disbursement

FAQ

Questions, answered

Which government subsidy schemes can my business apply for in India?

It depends on your entity type, sector, investment size, and location. Common central options include PMEGP and Mudra for new or micro units, CGTMSE for collateral-free credit, CLCSS for technology upgradation, Stand-Up India for SC/ST and women entrepreneurs, and PMFME for food processing, alongside your state's own capital and interest subsidies. A proper eligibility mapping tells you exactly which ones fit.

How much subsidy can I actually get?

It varies widely by scheme. For example, PMEGP offers a margin-money subsidy that is a percentage of project cost and higher for special categories and rural areas, while CLCSS and state policies provide capital subsidy on eligible plant and machinery up to defined ceilings. We give you realistic estimates for your specific case rather than a blanket figure.

Do you guarantee that my subsidy will be approved?

No honest consultant can guarantee government approval or a fixed sanction date — the decision and timeline rest with the bank and the concerned authority. What we guarantee is a correctly matched scheme, a bankable application, and diligent follow-up, which materially improves your chances and reduces avoidable rejection.

How are your fees structured?

We use a transparent retainer plus success-linked model. You pay a fixed advisory and documentation fee and a modest retainer for filing and liaison, plus a pre-agreed percentage of the subsidy that is payable only after it is actually sanctioned or disbursed. Government and statutory fees are kept separate and never marked up.

Can I apply for more than one scheme at the same time?

Often yes, but schemes have rules on stacking — some benefits cannot be combined and availing one may disqualify you from another. We sequence and combine applications legally so you capture the maximum benefit without breaching any scheme's conditions.

Do I need Udyam (MSME) registration before applying?

For most MSME-linked subsidies, yes — Udyam registration is required or strongly recommended, along with PAN, a bank account, and often GST registration. If you do not have these yet, we help you obtain them as part of preparing your application so nothing stalls the file later.
