This page provides a comprehensive, bank-ready PMEGP project report for a Welding Workshop (Engineering) under NIC 25112, with a project cost ranging from ₹3 lakh to ₹25 lakh. A well-prepared project report is critical for securing the 35% PMEGP margin money subsidy (up to ₹8.75 lakh for general category, higher for special categories) and for obtaining a term loan from a bank. The report includes detailed CMA (Credit Monitoring Arrangement) data, Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) calculations, and 5-year financial projections covering profit & loss, balance sheet, and cash flow. It also outlines the project's viability, market demand in your local area (e.g., tier-2 cities like Lucknow or Pune), raw material sourcing, and operational plan. Whether you are an aspiring entrepreneur or a CA assisting a client, this template ensures your application meets PMEGP guidelines and bank requirements for quick approval.
To apply under PMEGP for a welding workshop, the applicant must be at least 18 years old and have passed 8th standard (for projects above ₹10 lakh, 10th pass is required for manufacturing). There is no upper age limit. For general category, the maximum project cost is ₹25 lakh; for special categories (SC/ST/OBC/Women/Minorities/Ex-servicemen/Physically handicapped/NER/Hill/Border areas), the subsidy is 35% of the project cost (up to ₹8.75 lakh) versus 25% for general (up to ₹6.25 lakh). The applicant should not have defaulted on any loan and must not be a director/partner in another PMEGP unit. A welding workshop falls under manufacturing, so the project must be new (not an expansion). The land/building can be owned or leased (minimum 7 years lease).
For a welding workshop, typical project cost components include: machinery (welding machines, grinders, cutting tools, safety gear) – ₹1.5-10 lakh; furniture & fixtures – ₹0.3-1 lakh; working capital (raw materials like electrodes, gas cylinders, metal sheets) – ₹1-8 lakh; preliminary expenses – ₹0.2-1 lakh; and contingency – 5-10% of total. The financing structure: 25-35% subsidy (PMEGP margin money), 60-70% term loan from bank (at MCLR+3% typically), and 5-15% promoter's contribution. For a ₹10 lakh project, subsidy is ₹3.5 lakh (special) or ₹2.5 lakh (general), bank loan ₹6-6.5 lakh, and promoter's contribution ₹0.5-1 lakh. The DSCR should be above 1.5, and the project should generate positive net worth from year 1.
Essential documents: Aadhaar card, PAN card, caste/category certificate (if applicable), educational qualification certificates, project report (as per format), land/building documents (ownership or lease agreement), quotation for machinery and equipment, affidavit of non-default, and a detailed business plan. For the project report, include: executive summary, market analysis (local demand for welding services – e.g., fabrication, gates, railings, auto repair), technical details (machinery list with specifications), financial projections (5-year P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, DSCR calculation), CMA data (operating cycle, working capital assessment), and break-even analysis. The bank may also require a photograph of the proposed site and a no-objection certificate from local authorities if applicable.

For general category, subsidy is 25% of the project cost (max ₹6.25 lakh). For special categories (SC/ST/OBC/Women/Minorities/Ex-servicemen/Physically handicapped/NER/Hill/Border areas), subsidy is 35% (max ₹8.75 lakh). The project cost for a welding workshop can be up to ₹25 lakh.
No, PMEGP is only for new projects. You cannot apply for expansion or for a unit that is already operational. However, if you have never availed PMEGP subsidy before, you can start a new welding workshop as a separate entity.
The term loan from the bank is usually for 5-7 years, including a moratorium period of 6-12 months. The repayment schedule is structured based on cash flow projections, with monthly/quarterly installments. The interest rate is typically MCLR + 3% (around 9-12% per annum).
For loans up to ₹10 lakh, no collateral is required as it is covered under CGTMSE (Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises). For loans above ₹10 lakh, collateral may be required as per bank policy, but CGTMSE cover is available up to ₹2 crore for eligible units. The subsidy amount is not collateralized.
