State scheme

TG MIDH Guidelines (Mushroom)

Published as “Telangana MIDH Implementation Guidelines 2025-26, Mushroom Cultivation”, Horticulture Department, Government of Telangana.

TG MIDH Guidelines (Mushroom) is Telangana’s own scheme, administered by Horticulture Department, Government of Telangana. 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 “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.

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.

Private institutions will be eligible for 40% subsidy, up to a maximum of ₹12.00 lakh", ₹12 lakh is exactly 40% of the ₹30 lakh cost norm, not an additional ceiling. Identical cost norm and rate to midh-2025-production-unit and ap-midh-2025-production-unit, see the stacking entry below.

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.

Availing bank loan is Exempted." Identical rate structure to ap-midh-2025-low-cost-production-unit, including the explicit bank-loan exemption (printed p.101): "Government institutions ... eligible for 100% subsidy up to ₹2.00 lakh, while private institutions will be eligible for 50% subsidy up to ₹1.00 lakh." The scheme-level creditLinked:true flag above reflects the other three rows only, the engine's creditLinked check today is scheme-level, not per-rule (this site's own calculator), so a self-funded TG applicant is currently blocked from this scheme even though this specific row does not require a loan.

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.

The document's own front matter states outright: "Norms are as per the norms of Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture – Operational Guidelines, 2025, GOI" (printed p.1), this is Telangana's own implementation of the central scheme, not an independently invented one, and every cost norm and percentage in its Mushroom Cultivation section is identical to central MIDH Annexure V, item III (Production Unit ₹30 lakh/unit at 100%/40%; Spawn making unit ₹20 lakh/unit at 100%/40%; Compost making Unit ₹30 lakh/unit at 100%/40%; Low Cost/Small Scale unit ₹2 lakh/unit at 50%, max 5/beneficiary, see MIDH's own record on this site). Marked 'excluded' rather than 'stackable' so a Telangana farmer 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.

What to do next

Work out what your own project would draw.

What TG MIDH Guidelines (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.

Or have MushroomWale build it.

MushroomWale designs and builds mushroom farms. For the farms we build, we also prepare and pursue the claim: the DPR, the documents, the bank, the sanctioning department and the joint inspection.

We prepare and pursue the claim only for farms we build.
