This scheme, initiated by the Industries and Commerce Department, Union Territory of Puducherry, on April 1st, 2017, aims to incentivize industrial units to adopt environmentally friendly practices. It operates across the entire Union Territory of Puducherry. The core objective is to provide financial assistance to new and existing industries that invest in pollution control equipment, thereby promoting sustainable industrial growth and adherence to environmental regulations. The scheme provides a significant subsidy to offset the capital expenditure involved in installing such equipment, making it more feasible for units to comply with environmental standards and contribute to a cleaner environment. It caters to both self-financed units and those availing loans from financial institutions, ensuring broad applicability.

The scheme provides a significant subsidy of 25%, up to a maximum of ₹5,00,000, to industrial units for the installation of specified pollution control equipment. This financial assistance is crucial for units looking to comply with environmental regulations and reduce their ecological footprint. The disbursement can occur in single or multiple installments, depending on fund availability and verification of eligible expenditure and asset creation. For units financed by banks or financial institutions, the subsidy is typically routed through these institutions, adjusted against existing loans or for the creation of additional fixed assets or working capital. Self-financed units receive the subsidy directly, offering flexibility. This support mechanism helps industrial units manage the capital costs associated with environmental upgrades.
