The Scheme of Integrated infrastructure Development (including
technological backup services) for small scale industries to facilitate
the location of industries in rural/backward areas, to promote stronger
linkages between agriculture and industry and to generate employment was
launched in 1994. By the end of December 1998. 46 IID Centres have been
sanctioned in the rural/backward areas which were not covered under the
Growth Centres Scheme being implemented by the Deptt. of Industrial
Policy Promotion to create and develop infrastructural facilities like
developed sites, power distribution network, water, telecommunication s,
drainage and pollution control facilities, road, banks, raw materials
depots, storage and marketing outlets, common facilities and
technological back up services.
Salient features
- Project size of each Centre would be around15 to 20 hectares.
- Each IID Centre is expected to accommodate 40 to 450 Small
Scale/Tiny Units.
- Scheme will create and augment infrastructural needs within the
project area with full technological back up.
The estimated cost to set up an IID Centre is Rs. 5.00 crores which
is shared by the Government of India and Small Industries Development
Bank of India in the ratio of 2:3. The share of the Central Government
is in the form of grant and that of SIDBI as loan. The cost in excess of
Rs. 5 crores will be borne by the respective States/UT
Government/implementing agencies. With a view to give fillip to growth
of small industries in the North Eastern Region, Government of India has
recently relaxed the funding pattern of this scheme for North Eastern
Region. As per the revised pattern, project cost share by Government of
India grant is in the ratio of 4:1, i.e., Government of India grant
would be Rs. 4 cores and State share/SIDBI loan would be Rs. 1 crore.
The Scheme of IID was lacuned in March 1994. Till now, 46 IID projects
have been sanctioned by the High Powered Committee constituted under the
Scheme.
