The government has set an investment threshold of 50% for companies to be eligible for incentives under the PLI 1.1. Companies will be eligible for incentives even if the investments are made to augment their existing capacity to manufacture specialty steel.
«The second round of PLI reflects the industry's feedback and focuses on critical product categories that drive sectors like infrastructure, renewable energy and automobile,» HD Kumaraswamy, minister of steel, said at the launch of PLI 1.1.
The investment threshold for cold rolled grain oriented (CRGO) steel under the scheme has been brought down to ₹2,000 crore from ₹5,000 crore, while the required capacity creation has been lowered to 50,000 tonnes from 200,000 tonnes. The scheme also allows companies to carry forward excess capacity created to the following year if they overachieve their target for a year.
