Under the National Bamboo Mission, back-ended capital subsidies of 50% to 60% are available for bamboo furniture, agarbatti, and structural bamboo units in Mizoram (60% for SC/ST applicants, women, and differently abled persons; 50% for general category). Artisans apply through the state Horticulture Department or Bamboo Development Agency (BDA) in Aizawl. Because the subsidy is credit-linked and back-ended, released only after the completed unit is physically verified, the artisan needs to fund the unit through their own contribution and a bank loan first, with the subsidy then adjusted against the loan.

A fertilizer manufacturing loan or other working capital facility may help agro-chemical manufacturers manage the 60–90-day gap between raw material procurement, production, dispatch, and payment realization.

The PMFME scheme provides a 35% credit-linked capital subsidy, up to ₹10 lakh, for micro food-processing units in Arunachal Pradesh, with kiwi, orange, pineapple, and other crops among the designated One District One Product (ODOP) products by district. Individual entrepreneurs, SHGs, FPOs, and cooperatives are all eligible. Applications go through the District Industry Centre via the national PMFME portal at pmfme.mofpi.gov.in. The subsidy is backended, so the balance of the project cost (a minimum 10% beneficiary contribution plus a bank or NBFC loan) must be arranged before the subsidy is credited, which makes financing planning as important as understanding the subsidy itself.
