RJ NHM Guideline (Mushroom)

Published as “Rajasthan NHM Guidline 2022-23, मशरूम उत्पादन (Mushroom Production)”, उद्यान आयुक्तालय (Horticulture Commissionerate), Government of Rajasthan.

RJ NHM Guideline (Mushroom) is Rajasthan’s own scheme, administered by उद्यान आयुक्तालय (Horticulture Commissionerate), Government of Rajasthan. It is verified against a primary document, with 3 rules for mushroom cultivation below.

The most this pays for one item

₹8.00 lakh

The mushroom growing/production unit itself.

Printed in the document as “मशरूम उत्पादन इकाई”.

Private applicant, general area, 40%. That percentage is taken of ₹20.00 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 3 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.

मशरूम उत्पादन इकाई

The mushroom growing/production unit itself.

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.

Table row, verbatim: "मशरूम उत्पादन इकाई | 20.00 लाख रूपये | परियोजना लागत का 40 प्रतिशत अधिकतम 8.00 लाख रूपये प्रति इकाई क्रेडिट लिंक बैक एंडिड अनुदान।", 40% of project cost, capped at ₹8.00 lakh per unit, as credit-linked back-ended subsidy, against an estimated cost (अनुमानित लागत) of ₹20 lakh. 40% of ₹20 lakh is exactly ₹8 lakh, so the printed ceiling is the arithmetic result of the norm and rate, not a separate, tighter cap. On the gap against the current central norm: this is not a lower rate the state set for itself, it is the central norm the current one replaced. The Ministry of Agriculture's own earlier MIDH Operational Guidelines, dated February 2014 on its title page, prices exactly these three components at exactly these figures at Annexure-V, item "III. Mushrooms", and Government of India Annual Action Plans for states well outside this set (Punjab 2021-22 among them) reproduce them under the heading "Maximum permissible cost". Two things that does NOT mean. This atlas holds the two central guidelines and not the revisions between them, so it cannot say when the norm was raised; and a page written while that was the central norm was correct when it was written, so nothing here says this department erred. See "The Rs 20 lakh figure is the old central one" under How it works, which shows the earlier guideline in full.

स्पॉन बनाने की इकाई

The spawn laboratory.

The scheme assumes this item costs ₹15.00 lakh to build, and pays a share of that, not of your own quotation. It calls that figure a cost norm.

Who can claim it

This scheme prices a rate for general applicants.

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.

A note on what changed in this reasoning, and what did not. This verdict used to rest, in part, on the cost norms here being "genuinely different" from central MIDH's, which was read as a sign of a separate, state-authored schedule. That reading was wrong: Rs 20 lakh / Rs 15 lakh / Rs 20 lakh is the central norm the current one replaced. The figures therefore distinguish nothing on their own, in either direction, and the verdict below is re-derived without them. Re-derived on what the document says it is. Its covering letter, on the Horticulture Commissionerate's own letterhead, names the instrument outright: "मिशन फॉर इन्टीग्रेटेड डवलपमेन्ट ऑफ हॉर्टीकल्चर के तहत राष्ट्रीय बागवानी मिशन" (National Horticulture Mission, under the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture), and every page of the guideline it encloses carries the running header "NHM Guidline: 2022-23". This is Rajasthan issuing the central mission's own programme to its districts, at the central mission's own cost norms of the day, not a second state instrument standing beside it. That is the same reading this project already applied to Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Chhattisgarh, which print the current central norms under their own letterheads. A Rajasthan mushroom applicant draws one subsidy under MIDH, not two: 'excluded'. Two things this verdict deliberately does NOT rest on, and does not assert. First, the affidavit: condition 1 requires a शपथ-पत्र with the proposal but does not state, in this section, what it must declare, and the "no assistance from any other institution" wording that appears elsewhere in the same guideline sits on a different component's row and is still not read across to mushroom. Second, the rate: a 2022-23 guideline printing the then-current central norm says nothing about what Rajasthan quotes today, and the current central Annexure V, at ₹30 lakh, is where a Rajasthan grower should start.

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 RJ NHM Guideline (Mushroom) 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.
