About this subsidy
The Transport Incentive under clause 6.15 of NTIIP 2025 is the policy's answer to Nagaland's distance from major markets. Units established and located within the State are reimbursed 50% of the cost incurred for transporting goods outside the State, covering road, rail and air transport, subject to a maximum of Rs 50.00 lakhs per annum. The incentive runs for a period of five years. With a Rs 50 lakh annual ceiling this is the most substantial recurring incentive in NTIIP for a unit that ships volume out of Nagaland.
