Government of India had a shipbuilding subsidy
scheme for Indian Shipyards which expired on 14.08.2007.The shipbuilding
subsidy scheme had provided subsidy for domestic orders of 80 m length and
above which were obtained only on global tender basis. Export orders were also
eligible for subsidy.
Government of India has approved a New Financial
Assistance Policy for Indian Shipyards to provide a level playing field vis a
vis foreign shipyards. Financial assistance @20% of
the “Contract Price” or the “Fair Price” as determined by international
valuers, whichever is lower, is to be applicable for shipbuilding contracts
signed during the dated April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2026 including the said
dates. The 20% financial assistance would be provided for ten years reducing
@3% every 3 years.
This
information was given by Minister of State for Shipping, Shri
Pon. Radhakrishnan in a written reply to a question
in the Lok Sabha today.
