Subsidy
Obtaining subsidy for domestic manufacturers from Min of
Commerce (MoC) remains an uphill task for DEPO
Amount allocated always far less than the actually required
First come first serve basis for allocation of subsidy
Most of the manufacturers are denied this benefit due to which
they prefer not to participate

CHALLENGES
Against an overall requirement of Rs 125 M demanded for IDEAS-2012,
only Rs 60 M was allotted, which caused extra financial burden to the
Event Manager, who had already provided subsidy of Rs 125 M to
domestic exhibitors for encouraging maximum participation
Case pending with MoC for release of remaining Rs 65 M
Subsidy requested for IDEAS-2014 was Rs 130 M but less then 50%
was released that too, after six months of holding of IDEAS. This
resulted in lot of difficulties in attracting local exhibitors for IDEAS-2014
Approximately Rs 130 150 M subsidy is required for each IDEAS
Meeting of Min DP with Min of Commerce on the issue was planned on
25 Aug but has been postponed
