State scheme

HR MIDH/NHM Mushroom (adopted by reference)

Published as “Haryana, mushroom cultivation under MIDH/NHM, administered per central norms”, Department of Horticulture, Government of Haryana.

HR MIDH/NHM Mushroom (adopted by reference) is Haryana’s own scheme, administered by Department of Horticulture, Government of Haryana. It is verified against a primary document, with 4 rules for mushroom cultivation below.

The most this pays for one item

₹12.00 lakh

The mushroom growing/production unit itself.

Printed in the document as “(a) Production Unit”.

Private applicant, general area, 40%. That percentage is taken of ₹30.00 lakh, the cost this scheme assumes the item takes to build (it calls that a cost norm), not of whatever your own quotation says.

The biggest of the 4 items this document prices, not the total of them. Whether you can claim more than one, and alongside which other scheme, is answered further down.

What it pays for

Everything this document will put money towards on a mushroom project, in the order it lists them. Each figure names the document behind it; open one to read the clause itself.

(a) Production Unit

The mushroom growing/production unit itself.

The scheme assumes this item costs ₹30.00 lakh to build, and pays a share of that, not of your own quotation. It calls that figure a cost norm.

Haryana's own SB-69/SB-65 memos state this state administers MIDH's mushroom component per central norms (see this record's file-level note for the exact clauses) without printing a Haryana-specific rupee figure themselves. This rule's evidence is therefore MIDH's own central Annexure V clause, the actual document the figure was verified against, cited directly rather than attributed to Haryana's silent-on-the-number document. No figure here is invented; it is the same ₹30 lakh production-unit norm already verified for central MIDH, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka.

(b) Spawn making unit

The spawn laboratory.

The scheme assumes this item costs ₹20.00 lakh to build, and pays a share of that, not of your own quotation. It calls that figure a cost norm.

Same basis as hr-midh-production-unit above: MIDH's own low-cost row, ₹2 lakh/unit at 50%, max 5 units/beneficiary, adopted in Haryana by its own documents' express deferral, not invented here. Whether this specific row is exempt from credit linkage in Haryana (as Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka each separately state for their own implementations) is not addressed by either SB-65 or SB-69, so no creditLinkageWaiver is recorded for this rule.

Who can claim it

This scheme prices a rate for general applicants and public sector units.

The conditions

Does this need a bank loan? (credit linked)
Yes. The subsidy rides on a bank loan: a bank sanctions the loan and the subsidy is adjusted against it.
When does the money arrive? (back ended)
After you build, and after an inspection. The subsidy is held in a reserve account and released once the project has been inspected and found complete, not paid up front.
Must it be approved before you start work? (sanction before commencement)
We searched this document for a clause requiring sanction before you start work and did not find one. That is not the same as there being no such rule: it may sit in a document we have not read. Confirm with your sanctioning department and your bank before committing spend. Read why we will not resolve this either way.

Claiming this alongside another scheme

Checked against every other scheme this atlas holds. For most pairs no document says anything either way, and this page says so rather than guessing.

Read against 43 other schemes: 1 excluded, 42 unconfirmed.

Excluded

MIDH Excluded alongside MIDH.

SB-69 states outright that "MIDH is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme ... covering ... mushrooms" and that Haryana's SHM/HSHDA implements it "as per guidelines and norms envisaged in the scheme"; SB-65…Read the rest of the reasoning

SB-69 states outright that "MIDH is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme ... covering ... mushrooms" and that Haryana's SHM/HSHDA implements it "as per guidelines and norms envisaged in the scheme"; SB-65 states the same for the 3 non-MIDH-cluster districts, "on the pattern of Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture". This is Haryana administering the identical central scheme through its own nodal machinery, not a Haryana-invented add-on, the same reasoning already applied to Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, whose own documents print the identical MIDH figures directly rather than by reference. Marked 'excluded' so a Haryana applicant is never shown this record's rules and midh-2025's as two independent, additive sums for the same component.

Unconfirmed

For most pairs of schemes, this reading found nothing in either document that says how the two combine.

Neither guideline addresses this combination. Confirm with the department before you rely on it.

Work out what your own project would draw.

What HR MIDH/NHM Mushroom (adopted by reference) pays you depends on your own state, size and cost. The calculator asks where you are, what you are building and what it costs, then prices every scheme on this site against that, shows the document behind each figure, and writes a link you can send to your bank.
