Planning to start a homestay in a tourist destination like Goa, Himachal, or Kerala under MUDRA Tarun? This page is your complete guide to preparing a bank-ready project report for a homestay business (NIC 55103) with a project cost between ₹5 lakh and ₹40 lakh. Under MUDRA Tarun (the third category of Pradhan Mantri MUDRA Yojana), loans up to ₹10 lakh are available for non-farm income-generating activities. However, many banks also fund homestay projects up to ₹40 lakh under MUDRA Tarun by combining it with other schemes or using the Tarun label for larger amounts. A professional project report is critical for loan approval—it must include CMA (Credit Monitoring Arrangement) data, Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) calculations, and 5-year financial projections. This report also helps you claim any applicable subsidies under state tourism policies or schemes like PMEGP. Below, we break down eligibility, project cost heads, documents required, and subsidy opportunities specific to homestays.
To qualify for MUDRA Tarun for a homestay, you must be an Indian citizen aged 18+ with a viable business plan. The business should be a new or existing homestay (NIC 55103) located in a tourist area. There is no minimum educational qualification, but prior hospitality experience is a plus. The loan is collateral-free for amounts up to ₹10 lakh under CGTMSE cover; for higher amounts up to ₹40 lakh, collateral may be required. The borrower should not have defaulted on any previous loan. Priority is given to women, SC/ST, and OBC entrepreneurs. The property must be owned or have a long-term lease (at least 10 years). Local municipal or panchayat approvals for homestay operations are mandatory.
For a homestay with a project cost of ₹5–40 lakh, typical cost heads include: civil renovation/construction (₹2–20 lakh), furniture & fixtures (₹1–5 lakh), kitchen equipment (₹0.5–2 lakh), air conditioners & appliances (₹1–3 lakh), linen & soft furnishing (₹0.3–1 lakh), computers/software for booking (₹0.2–0.5 lakh), and working capital (₹0.5–2 lakh). The MUDRA Tarun loan covers up to 90% of the project cost (max ₹10 lakh for Tarun; for larger amounts, the loan may be structured as MUDRA Tarun plus a term loan). The borrower must bring 10–20% margin money. Repayment tenure is 3–7 years with a moratorium of 6–12 months. Interest rates range from 9% to 14% depending on the bank and credit score.
Submit a detailed project report with: KYC documents (Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID), address proof of business premises, property documents (title deed, tax receipts, lease deed if rented), estimated cost breakup with quotations, 3 years of bank statements (if existing business), income tax returns for last 2 years, GST registration (if applicable), and a business plan with 5-year cash flow projections. Additionally, include a CMA format sheet, DSCR calculation (should be >1.25), and a sustainability report highlighting waste management and local employment. If claiming subsidy, attach state tourism department registration or PMEGP application acknowledgment.
MUDRA Tarun itself does not offer a direct subsidy, but homestay owners can avail subsidies under state tourism policies. For example, Kerala’s Responsible Tourism Mission provides up to ₹5 lakh subsidy for new homestays. Himachal Pradesh offers 25% capital subsidy (max ₹15 lakh) for tourism units. Under PMEGP, homestays can get 15–35% subsidy on project cost (max ₹10 lakh). Additionally, the Ministry of Tourism’s ‘Hunar Se Rozgar Tak’ provides free training. CGTMSE covers collateral-free loans up to ₹2 crore. To claim subsidy, ensure your project report includes the specific scheme requirements and attach the subsidy application form.

Yes, but MUDRA Tarun is officially for loans up to ₹10 lakh. For a ₹30 lakh project, banks may structure the loan as ₹10 lakh under MUDRA Tarun (collateral-free) and the remaining ₹20 lakh as a term loan with collateral. Alternatively, some banks label the entire loan as MUDRA Tarun if the borrower qualifies under the scheme's flexible interpretation. Always confirm with your bank.
Most banks require a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) of at least 1.25. For homestays, we recommend targeting a DSCR of 1.5 or higher to comfortably cover loan installments. Your project report should show net operating income after expenses divided by total debt service (principal + interest) for each year.
GST registration is mandatory if your annual turnover exceeds ₹20 lakh (₹10 lakh in special category states). For a new homestay, you can apply for GST registration voluntarily even if turnover is below the threshold, as it helps claim input tax credit on purchases. Many banks prefer GST registration for loan approval.
Typically 2–4 weeks from submission of a complete project report. If you apply online via the MUDRA portal or through a bank, the process is faster. Delays occur if property documents or subsidy applications are incomplete. Using a professional project report can speed up approval.
