PLISFPI (PLI Scheme): Incentives on Incremental Food Sales Explained

6 min read · Category: PLISFPI

Large-scale food manufacturing plant (PLISFPI)

The Production Linked Incentive Scheme for the Food Processing Industry (PLISFPI) is a ₹10,900 crore programme built to create global Indian food-manufacturing champions. Unlike capital-subsidy schemes, PLISFPI rewards performance — growth in sales.

How the incentive works

Selected companies receive an incentive calculated on incremental sales over a base year, subject to achieving minimum committed investment and sales growth. A separate component reimburses 50% of branding & marketing expenditure abroad. Details are on our PLISFPI scheme page.

Which segments qualify

Four segments: Ready-to-Cook / Ready-to-Eat foods including millet-based products, processed fruits & vegetables, marine products, and mozzarella cheese. There is also a component for innovative / organic products of SMEs.

Is PLISFPI right for you?

It suits established manufacturers ready to commit investment and scale significantly — often alongside a CEFPPC capacity-creation grant and APEDA export support. For newer or micro units, start with our MoFPI subsidy guide.
