MSMEs

General manufacturing, fabrication and processing units that don't fall under Food Processing or Cold Storage — from engineering and plastics to fasteners, packaging and recycling. Most route to the standard MSME Development Policy 2022 (25-30% Capital Investment Subsidy), though a handful of activities sit on Odisha's negative list or carry specific investment thresholds — each page flags this clearly rather than assuming eligibility.

Handicrafts and Handloom

Handicrafts and Handloom

₹5 lakh – ₹50 lakh (typical)

Priority sector under IPR 2022. PM Vishwakarma covers the individual-artisan tier (certificate, toolkit incentive, concessional credit) for 18 notified trades — check that the client hasn't already availed PMEGP, PM SVANidhi or Mudra, which disqualifies PM Vishwakarma.

Engineering and Fabrication

Engineering and Fabrication

₹25 lakh – ₹1 crore (typical)

Standard MSME Policy 2022 route — 25% general / 30% reserved-category Capital Investment Subsidy, plus the usual top-ups for backward district, IDCO estate or environmental measures.

Plastics and Polymers

Plastics and Polymers

₹50 lakh + (typical)

A focus sector under the MSME Policy 2022, which means it independently qualifies for the +5% location-style top-up (cap +₹20 lakh) regardless of district.

Textiles and Apparel

Textiles and Apparel

₹50 lakh + (typical)

Both an MSME Policy focus sector and an IPR 2022 Thrust sector — one of the few activities where the uncapped (but unverified) IPR 2022 route may be materially better above roughly ₹8.3cr of plant & machinery, where the MSME Policy's rupee cap starts to bind.

Tourism and Hospitality

Tourism and Hospitality

₹50 lakh + (typical)

Priority sector under IPR 2022 (20% Capital Investment Subsidy, disbursed over 5 years, uncapped per the policy text though unverified).

Steel and Stainless Steel

₹50 lakh + (typical)

General steel/stainless-steel fabrication (utensils, structures, tanks) routes to the standard MSME Policy 2022 (25–30% CIS). Same caveat as Engineering and Fabrication: certain heads are excluded outright.

Medical Equipments

Medical Equipments

₹50 lakh + (typical)

Not on the negative list, and medical-device manufacturing may separately qualify as an IPR 2022 priority or thrust sector — worth checking against the notified list, since that route can be more generous than the general MSME Policy CIS.

Manufacture of Metal Fasteners (Nuts, Bolts, Screws, Washers)

Manufacture of Metal Fasteners (Nuts, Bolts, Screws, Washers)

₹30 lakh – ₹1 crore (typical)

Standard engineering/manufacturing activity, not on the negative list — routes to the general MSME Policy 2022 (25–30% CIS).

Illustration coming soon

Fly Ash & Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Blocks

₹50 lakh – ₹2 crore (typical)

Plain brick-making is excluded on Odisha's negative list, but fly-ash / red-mud composite bricks with 25% or more such content are a named exception — AAC blocks built around fly ash plausibly qualify, though the exact composition threshold should be confirmed against the client's actual product before quoting eligibility.

Recycling Projects

Recycling Projects

₹30 lakh + (typical, varies widely by material)

Depends heavily on the material stream. Plastic recycling specifically is excluded outright on the negative list; metal, paper or other recycling activities are not automatically excluded but should be checked individually before advising eligibility.

Non-Food Packaging Industries

Non-Food Packaging Industries

₹30 lakh – ₹1.5 crore (typical)

General industrial packaging (cartons, corrugated boxes, non-food containers) routes to the standard MSME Policy 2022, subject to the same woven-sack-stitching and re-packaging exclusions on the negative list applying to the specific activity.

Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility

Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility

₹1 crore + (typical, per Vehicle Scrapping Policy infrastructure norms)

A named service-sector exception on Odisha's negative list — eligible for Capital Investment Subsidy under the MSME Policy 2022 with no stated investment threshold, provided the facility is registered under the central Vehicle Scrapping Policy.

Solvent Extraction Plant

Solvent Extraction Plant

₹1 crore + (typical)

Needs a direct eligibility check before advising. Solvent extraction of oil from oilseeds may fall under Odisha's excluded oil-seed pre-processing or edible/non-edible oil mill heads — we're confirming the specific negative-list wording against the source policy rather than assuming eligibility.

Single-Use Plastic & Polythene (Above 120 Micron)

Single-Use Plastic & Polythene (Above 120 Micron)

₹30 lakh + (typical)

Odisha's negative list excludes single-use plastic and polythene below 120 microns; above that thickness, it's treated as standard eligible manufacturing under the MSME Policy 2022.

Cotton Mill / Ginning Mill

Cotton Mill / Ginning Mill

₹50 lakh – ₹2 crore (typical)

Primary cotton processing (ginning, pressing) is not on the negative list and routes to the general MSME Policy 2022, or to IPR 2022 if positioned within Odisha's broader textiles thrust-sector push.

Rice Husk Based Thermal Insulator Products

₹20 lakh – ₹80 lakh (typical, indicative)

A value-added agro-byproduct manufacturing activity, not on the negative list. Worth checking against the IPR 2022 priority-sector list given its green/waste-utilisation angle, alongside the standard MSME Policy route.

Illustration coming soon

Weld Wire Mesh & Fence Manufacturing

₹20 lakh – ₹70 lakh (typical)

Standard light-engineering manufacturing, not on the negative list — routes to the general MSME Policy 2022.

Illustration coming soon

Fire Extinguisher Manufacturing

₹30 lakh – ₹1 crore (typical)

Standard manufacturing activity, not on the negative list — routes to the general MSME Policy 2022. BIS certification (relevant IS standards for fire-fighting equipment) applies to the product, separate from the subsidy question.

Illustration coming soon

Paper Plates and Bowls

₹10 lakh – ₹50 lakh (typical)

A common small-ticket manufacturing entry point, not on the negative list — routes to the general MSME Policy 2022 and often to PMEGP for a first-time entrepreneur at this scale.

Illustration coming soon

PET Preforms

₹50 lakh – ₹2 crore (typical)

Plastics manufacturing (not the excluded single-use/under-120-micron category) routes to the general MSME Policy 2022, which also carries an independent +5% top-up for plastics as an MSME Policy focus sector.

Illustration coming soon

Plastic Bottle & Cap Manufacturing

₹50 lakh – ₹2 crore (typical)

Same treatment as PET Preforms — rigid plastics manufacturing, not the excluded thin-film category, routes to the general MSME Policy 2022 with the plastics focus-sector top-up.

Garments Manufacturing

Garments Manufacturing

₹30 lakh – ₹1.5 crore (typical)

Plain tailoring is excluded on Odisha's negative list, but readymade garment manufacture is a named exception and is explicitly eligible under the MSME Policy 2022 — also a candidate for the IPR 2022 Thrust-sector route alongside Textiles and Apparel.

Illustration coming soon

Shoe Manufacturing

₹30 lakh – ₹1.5 crore (typical)

Footwear manufacturing is not on the negative list and often sits among IPR 2022's notified priority/thrust sectors nationally — worth checking Odisha's specific notified list before defaulting to the general MSME Policy route.
