All You Need to Know about the Coir Udyami Yojana

All You Need to Know about the Coir Udyami Yojana

Did you know that the coir industry employs more than 7 lakh workers across all the principal coconut-producing states in India? This labor-intensive industry is majorly export-oriented and has earned the nation a whopping Rs 2,192 crores of foreign exchange until 2019.

To further promote the coir industry’s workings, the Government of India introduced the COIR Udyami Yojana.  

What is it?

This credit-linked subsidy scheme is a mix of business loan and interest subsidy offered by the Central Government to aid entrepreneurs in setting up coir units. Project costs up to Rs. 10 lakhs and one cycle of working capital (that should not exceed 25% of the project cost) will be covered under this scheme.

Also called CUY, this Yojana launched and implemented by the Coir Board and the Ministry of MSME, meant good news to all families that derive their income from this activity.

Here’s everything you need to know about the scheme.

Features of the scheme

  • This Yojana has been launched, keeping in mind the need to establish micro-level coir units in the country.
  • The applicant needs to pay for only 5% of the project cost, initially.
  • Entrepreneurs can avail 40% of the project costs in the form of subsidy assistance from the government.
  • Grants in the form of CUY business loans with concessional interest ratesshall cover the remaining 50% of the project costs.
  • This scheme covers costs that include all kinds of purchases made towards capital establishment.
