The Delhi government has launched a new financial incentive program aimed at bolstering the healthcare sector and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The initiative, backed by a total allocation of Rs 1,000 crore, is designed to encourage capital investment through direct assistance.

Under the new guidelines, eligible projects are entitled to receive 25 percent of their capital investment as assistance. For standard projects, this subsidy is capped at Rs 10 crore. However, the policy includes specific provisions to encourage inclusivity and scale; women-led enterprises are eligible for an increased cap of Rs 12 crore.

Large-scale healthcare infrastructure is a primary focus of this policy. Hospitals that meet the threshold of having at least 1,000 beds are eligible for a significantly higher subsidy ceiling of Rs 100 crore. This tiered approach is intended to incentivize the development of major medical facilities within the region while simultaneously supporting smaller business entities. The policy reflects a broader effort to stimulate industrial growth and improve essential service infrastructure in Delhi.
