The Maharashtra state government has relaxed the condition of obtaining unique identity number (UID) for availing the state’s schemes, simplifying the process for textile projects.
The state’s Co-operation, Textiles and Marketing Department issued a notification on January 29 relaxing the mandatory condition of obtaining UID to avail the schemes implemented by the government.
This relaxation is applicable only to those textile projects which have applied to Textile Commissioner for UID and their applications are pending. Those textile projects which have not applied to Textile Commissioner for UID are not eligible for this relaxation, said section officer to Government of Maharashtra RA Khadse.
Government of Maharashtra has relaxed the condition of obtaining UID number from Textile Commissioner, Government of India and receiving Government of India subsidy for availing benefits under the state’s scheme for the textile projects which have been sanctioned long term loan by banks as per TUFS norms during the period from April 1, 2011 to February 20, 2014 for interest subsidy and from March 1, 2012 to February 20, 2014 for capital subsidy through this government resolution.
