Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board is keeping Capital Investment Subsidy for Expansion of Established Star, Deluxe, Standard Hotel, Resort, and Heritage Hotel available in 2026, and the online sign-up page for capital subsidy applications is live on the official tourism portal.
No separate 2026 amount revision was visible in the public pages checked on 03 August 2026. Current official pages still show 15% subsidy on fixed capital investment for this expansion category, with minimum project expenditure of ₹1 crore and a maximum ceiling of ₹5 crore under Tourism Policy 2025.
Capital Investment Subsidy for Expansion of Established Star, Deluxe, Standard Hotel, Resort, and Heritage Hotel
This scheme is for existing tourism properties in Madhya Pradesh that want to expand rooms, capacity, or related project infrastructure. Public pages checked for this update show the category in the live capital subsidy table of Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board, so the article below is based on the latest reachable official pages available now.
Application Process
Application is handled through the tourism board's capital subsidy system. A business owner should first check the live scheme page, then create or use an account on the official sign-up portal before preparing the subsidy claim papers.
STEP 1 Go to the official Capital Subsidies and Status page and confirm that the expansion category matches the project. The live table currently shows this category with minimum project expenditure of ₹1 crore, 15% subsidy, and a ceiling of ₹5 crore.
STEP 2 Open the official capital subsidy sign-up page. New applicants can register there, and existing applicants can continue with their account to file or manage the subsidy request.
STEP 3 Keep project and ownership papers ready before filling the form. The detailed claim process is published separately in the official procedure document, so applicants should match the portal entry with the latest rule document before final submission.
STEP 4 After submission, keep copies of the uploaded papers and check follow-up requirements from Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board. If the project falls in another tourism subsidy category, compare it carefully before filing one claim route.

Benefits
Main benefit shown for this category on the live official page is a capital subsidy equal to 15% of fixed capital investment, with an upper ceiling of ₹5 crore. This makes the article's older general wording clearer because the current public table gives the exact category amount and minimum project size.
Extra support is also shown in the current official page for some related cases. Tourism projects in distant and ulterior areas can get an additional 5% capital investment subsidy, and SC or ST entrepreneurs with 100% ownership can get an additional 5% subsidy where the policy allows it.
Projects starting from scratch can also check Capital Investment Subsidy to Establish a New Deluxe-Three Star or Higher Category New Hotel and Resort. Very large tourism projects may fit better under Investment Promotion Assistance to Setup Large, Mega and Ultra Mega Tourism Projects in Madhya Pradesh.
Eligibility
This subsidy category is meant for already established star, deluxe, standard hotel, resort, and heritage hotel units that want to expand. The live capital subsidy page clearly shows this category as an expansion category, not a new project category.
Public pages checked for this update support these main points. The project should be in Madhya Pradesh, the expansion should fall under the tourism policy framework, and the minimum project expenditure shown on the current public table is ₹1 crore. Applicants should also make sure the project papers and tourism-category approvals match the latest policy rules before claiming the amount.
Required Documents
Current public pages do not show one short single-page checklist for this exact category, but the official claim procedure and portal make it clear that project, ownership, and cost papers are needed. Applicants should prepare the documents below and then match them with the latest rule document before uploading.
- Ownership and entity proof, such as firm registration papers, incorporation documents, partnership deed, or other business records connected to the tourism unit.
- Land and property papers, such as sale deed, lease deed, land record papers, approved map, and related site details where applicable.
- Project and tourism-category papers, including project report, category approval, and any tourism department certification needed for the property type.
- Cost and finance papers, including fixed capital investment details and certificates from qualified professionals wherever the official claim process asks for them.
- Operational records and bank details that support commercial activity, payment route, and subsidy release formalities.
Important Points
Some conditions on the live tourism board page apply to nearby or related categories, so applicants should read the exact category text before filing. For example, the live page separately mentions a 70% local employment condition for new deluxe and standard hotels being established, but that line is not shown as the main rule text for this expansion category.
Applicants should also avoid filing under two overlapping benefit routes for the same investment without checking the policy first. The live tourism board page says a unit that claims investment promotion assistance cannot also claim capital subsidy in another category under the policy.
