The MSME Sustainable (ZED) Certification Scheme gives Kerala manufacturing businesses a structured route to quality and environmental certification, backed by subsidies of up to 80% on certification costs for micro enterprises, with an additional 85% CGTMSE guarantee coverage unlocked on achieving the certificate.

Setting up for ZED assessment often means investing in process documentation, equipment calibration, and quality systems before the assessor visit. IIFL Finance provides business loans for manufacturing units that need to fund these pre-certification improvements, as well as Gold Loans for unit owners who want faster access to funds without producing business financials.
