AI SummaryMadhya Pradesh government is offering support under Installation of Ropeway Infrastructure for Transport in Inaccessible Tourist Places or Forest Areas through MP Tourism Policy 2025, and the main public tourism subsidy pages checked on 03 August 2026 are still live. Current official subsidy details still show 40% support on fixed capital investment, with a maximum ceiling of ₹5 crore for this category.
Checked sources during this review did not show any separate 2026 notice closing this ropeway subsidy or changing its main benefit amount. Public pages still point applicants to the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board capital subsidy system, the Tourism Policy 2025 document, and the Invest MP portal for approvals and investor support.
Installation of Ropeway Infrastructure for Transport in Inaccessible Tourist Places or Forest Areas in Madhya Pradesh
This scheme is for private investors and eligible business entities planning ropeway infrastructure in inaccessible tourist places or forest areas in Madhya Pradesh. The live Capital Subsidies and Status page of Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board still lists this category with minimum project expenditure of ₹1 crore, subsidy at 40% of fixed capital investment, and a maximum ceiling of ₹5 crore.
Public pages also continue to say tourism projects established and operationalised during the operative tenure of the policy can claim capital investment subsidy. For this ropeway category, no separate public 2026 revision page was found showing a different subsidy slab, a new deadline for all applicants, or a replacement scheme.
Application support is still linked to the Tourism Board signup page and the Invest MP system. The checked 2026 tourism clearances document also shows that many tourism-related approvals are handled through the single window route, with forest clearance and other department approvals used where the project location needs them.

How to apply online
Current public pages checked on 03 August 2026 still show the Tourism Board signup route and Invest MP investor pages as the live online path. No common public last date for every ropeway applicant was visible in the checked sources, but the policy-linked material continues to point to filing the subsidy claim within one year from the start of commercial operations.
STEP 1 - Open the Apply Online for Capital Subsidy page and create the investor login using the applicant name, mobile number, email ID, state, and city details.
STEP 2 - Check the Capital Subsidies and Status page to confirm the ropeway category, current subsidy slab, and related public conditions before filing the claim.
STEP 3 - Use the Invest MP Single Window System and the Invest MP Tourism sector page for investor support, tourism sector information, and connected approval routes.
STEP 4 - Keep land papers, project report, cost certificates, approval papers, and proof of commercial operations ready. If the site falls in a forest related area, forest clearance and other local approvals may also be needed as per the tourism clearances document.
STEP 5 - Submit the subsidy claim through the live tourism portal route within the running claim timeline used by the department. Publicly available policy summaries checked during this review continue to point to a one year claim window from the date of commercial operations, and no newer checked 2026 source clearly showed a different timeline.
Benefits and latest 2026 position
The main benefit visible on the checked official tourism subsidy page is 40% subsidy against fixed capital investment with a maximum ceiling of ₹5 crore. That remains the main figure for this ropeway category in the checked 2026 sources.
The same checked page still shows minimum project expenditure of ₹1 crore for this category. This is one of the highest published subsidy percentages on the live capital subsidy page, but the article review did not find any public 2026 update increasing the ceiling beyond ₹5 crore.
Official tourism pages also continue to show an additional 5% capital investment subsidy for tourism projects in distant and new ulterior areas, with lower minimum investment limits in those cases as per the published policy note. Public pages also mention an additional 5% capital investment subsidy for SC or ST entrepreneurs with 100% ownership of the tourism project where policy conditions are met.
Who can apply
This category is meant for private investors and eligible business entities planning ropeway infrastructure in inaccessible tourist places or forest areas in Madhya Pradesh. The project should fit the ropeway category shown on the live capital subsidy page.
Projects should be established and operationalised during the operative tenure of the policy, and the subsidy claim should follow the policy route used by the department. No public closure notice for this ropeway category was visible in the checked sources on 03 August 2026.
One important correction during this review is that the public 70% local jobs condition on the checked tourism page is written for new deluxe and standard hotels. It is not shown there as a separate ropeway-specific condition, so that point should not be treated as the main eligibility rule for this ropeway article.
Required documents
Applicants should keep project, land, approval, finance, and operations papers ready before starting the subsidy claim. Missing papers can slow down checking by the department.
- Project and business papers such as the detailed project report, company or firm registration documents, PAN, and identity proof of the authorised signatory.
- Land and approval papers such as sale deed or lease deed, site map, land records, approved layout or building papers, and local department permissions linked to the site.
- Cost and claim papers such as engineer or technical cost certificate, CA certificate for project cost, bank details with cancelled cheque, proof of commercial operations, and site photographs if the department asks for them.
For projects in forest linked locations, the checked tourism clearances document also points to forest clearance as one of the approvals that may apply depending on the land and project setup. Applicants should confirm the exact approval list through the single window route before spending on final submission.
