Are you planning to start a dairy farm under the MUDRA Tarun scheme? This page provides a comprehensive guide to preparing a bank-ready project report for a dairy farm (NIC 01410) with a project cost between ₹5 lakh and ₹1 crore. A well-structured project report is crucial for loan approval under MUDRA Tarun. It should include detailed CMA (Credit Monitoring Arrangement) data, Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) calculations, and 5-year financial projections covering income, expenditure, and cash flow. The report must demonstrate the viability of the dairy unit, including herd size, milk yield, feed costs, veterinary expenses, and revenue from milk sales and manure. Additionally, it should outline the subsidy available under schemes like PMEGP or state animal husbandry departments. This guide covers eligibility, project cost breakdown, financing structure, documents required, and step-by-step preparation tips to help you secure the loan and subsidy efficiently.
To apply for a MUDRA Tarun loan for a dairy farm, the borrower must be an Indian citizen aged 18 years or above. The business should be a new or existing dairy farm with a project cost between ₹5 lakh and ₹1 crore. The borrower should have a good credit history and a viable business plan. The dairy farm must be located in a suitable area with access to water, veterinary services, and market. Key documents include Aadhaar card, PAN card, land documents (ownership or lease agreement for farm premises), proof of business address, and quotations for cattle, equipment, and construction. Additionally, a detailed project report with CMA data and financial projections is mandatory.
The project cost for a dairy farm under MUDRA Tarun includes capital expenditure such as purchase of milch animals (cows/buffaloes), construction of shed, milking machine, chaff cutter, bulk milk cooler, and working capital for feed, fodder, veterinary expenses, and labor. Typically, the cost is split as: land (if purchased) 10-15%, cattle 40-50%, shed and equipment 25-30%, working capital 10-15%. Under MUDRA Tarun, the loan amount can be up to ₹10 lakh (for Tarun) or up to ₹1 crore (under MUDRA Plus or other schemes). The borrower must contribute at least 10-15% margin money. Subsidy up to 25-35% (max ₹10-20 lakh) may be available under PMEGP or state schemes, subject to eligibility. The loan repayment period is usually 5-7 years with a moratorium of 6-12 months.
For a MUDRA Tarun dairy farm loan, you need to submit: 1) Identity proof (Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID), 2) Address proof (utility bill, rental agreement), 3) Business proof (GST registration if applicable, trade license), 4) Land documents (title deed, lease deed, or NOC from landowner), 5) Quotations for cattle, equipment, and construction, 6) Detailed project report with CMA data, DSCR, and 5-year projections, 7) Bank statements for last 6 months (if existing business), 8) Income tax returns for last 2 years (if applicable), 9) Caste certificate (if seeking subsidy under SC/ST/OBC category), 10) Any other documents required by the bank. Ensure all documents are self-attested and organized.
Dairy farms can avail subsidies under various schemes. Under PMEGP, a subsidy of 25% (35% for special categories) of the project cost (max ₹10 lakh) is available for manufacturing units, but dairy farming is classified under animal husbandry and may be eligible if the project includes processing (e.g., milk chilling). Alternatively, state animal husbandry departments offer subsidies for dairy development, such as 25-50% subsidy on purchase of milch animals, shed construction, or equipment. Under the National Livestock Mission, subsidies up to 50% (max ₹20 lakh) are available for dairy infrastructure. Additionally, MUDRA loans themselves are unsubsidized but can be combined with these subsidies. It is advisable to check with your local district animal husbandry office for specific schemes.

Under MUDRA Tarun, the loan amount is up to ₹10 lakh. However, for projects costing up to ₹1 crore, you can apply under MUDRA Plus or other MUDRA variants, or combine with term loans from banks. The actual loan amount depends on the project cost and your repayment capacity.
Yes, but PMEGP subsidy is primarily for manufacturing and service units. Dairy farming (animal husbandry) is eligible if the project includes processing activities like milk chilling or value addition. The subsidy is 25% (35% for SC/ST/OBC/women) of the project cost, subject to a maximum of ₹10 lakh. Check with your local KVIC or DIC for eligibility.
Typically, a dairy farm with 5-10 milch animals (cows or buffaloes) can be set up with a project cost of ₹10 lakh. The cost includes purchase of cattle (₹1-1.5 lakh per animal), shed construction (₹2-3 lakh), equipment like milking machine and chaff cutter (₹1-2 lakh), and working capital for 6 months (₹2-3 lakh). The exact number depends on the breed and local prices.
Banks typically require a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) of at least 1.25 to 1.5 for dairy farm loans. This means your net operating income should be 1.25 to 1.5 times your annual debt obligations (principal + interest). A higher DSCR improves loan approval chances. Your project report should show realistic projections to achieve this.
