Case Studies
RMC Plant Expansion
Client:
Rockbind RMC Pvt. Ltd.
Challenge:
The client was looking to expand their capacity by 40%, but the conversion from MT/month to cubic feet (CFT) per month for their production units created significant documentation and regulatory hurdles, especially in understanding the policy treatment for capacity expansion under the Maharashtra PSI 2019.
Solution:
Our team worked closely with the Directorate of Industries (DOI) and MPCB to establish the correct documentation and capacity calculations, ensuring that the conversion was justified and acceptable under government guidelines.
Outcome:
Successful subsidy claim approval and increased production capacity with proper documentation and regulatory compliance.

Client:
A Luxury Heritage Resort in Maharashtra
Challenge:
The client wanted to claim benefits under the Maharashtra Tourism Policy but faced challenges in proving eligibility as a “heritage” hotel, especially due to ambiguity in the size, age, and architectural features required for heritage status.
Solution:
We collaborated with architectural experts to assess the structure and historical significance, providing the necessary proof for heritage classification. We also worked through the complexities of the policy’s requirements, such as room/carpet area, and ensured that all the eligibility criteria were clearly met.
Outcome:
Successful sanction of capital subsidy and additional benefits under the Tourism Policy, including tax exemptions and power subsidies.

Challenge:
The client, an agro-based industry, sought to implement automation technology in their manufacturing process. However, their plant infrastructure, along with budget constraints, made it a highly complex project in terms of cost-benefit analysis, subsidy eligibility under PSI 2019, and technology integration.
Solution:
SME Care developed a detailed cost-benefit analysis for the client, helped them apply for technology upgradation subsidies, and worked closely with the technology provider to optimize the automation system. We also navigated the regulatory process to ensure compliance with industry standards.

The project successfully secured an interest subsidy under the government’s PSI 2019 scheme, reduced operational costs by 30%, and helped the client scale up production with minimal environmental impact.
Government Scheme Integration – Chemical Manufacturing Unit
Client:
Chemical Processing Unit in Gujarat
Challenge:
The client had received a partial subsidy under the Gujarat Atmanirbhar Scheme but was unable to fully integrate their claim with the necessary government documentation, resulting in delays in the disbursement of the remaining funds.
Solution:
We analyzed the client’s entire subsidy documentation, worked with government agencies to identify discrepancies, and ensured all documents were aligned with the subsidy guidelines. Additionally, we facilitated communication with the concerned authorities to expedite the process.
Outcome:
The client received the remaining subsidy amount, and we ensured smoother processes for future government applications.
