About this subsidy
Under the ICT (Information & Communication Technology) incentive of the Jammu & Kashmir Tourism Policy – 2020, the tourism sector can claim a maximum of Rs 5 lac per event, for a maximum of 5 events per year.
The benefit is structured per event rather than as an annual lump sum, so a business running several qualifying events through the year can claim against each one, up to the five-event annual limit — a maximum exposure of Rs 5 lac on any single event.
It sits alongside the companion ICT benefit for equipment procurement and content creation in the same policy clause, and is claimed through the state's single window process.

What You Get
The ICT incentive pays a maximum of Rs 5 lac per event, capped at a maximum of 5 events per year. Because the ceiling is per event rather than annual, a tourism business active across multiple events can claim repeatedly through the year within that five-event limit. It is one of the monetary benefits of the J&K Tourism Policy 2020 and is claimed via the state single window.
