I want to start a khadi and village industry unit in Ludhiana, what subsidies and registration are available?

Khadi and village industries are promoted under the Khadi and Village Industries Commission Act, 1956, and the Punjab Rent Control Act 1995 khadi policy of your state. You can register with the Khadi and Village Industries Board in Ludhiana and avail benefits including margin money subsidy, working capital, and marketing support. The Punjab and Haryana High Court has recognized khadi as a symbol of national heritage and has directed states to protect it from imitation and machine-made competition. The Prime Minister's Employment Generation Programme provides financial assistance for setting up micro-enterprises in the khadi sector. The unit must produce goods using traditional methods to qualify for khadi certification. The state may also provide sales outlets and exhibitions for marketing of khadi products.
