Construction Norms & Technical Specifications for NABARD Subsidy Scheme
Dear Businessman,
We are sharing the Third Part of our NABARD Subsidy blogs. In this part, we will provide detailed information about the construction norms and technical specifications related to godowns.
When you prepare the documents for NABARD subsidy, the major cause of rejections is often that the godowns are not constructed according to the standards. I frequently receive inquiries from investors and those who want to build godowns for their business purposes or to rent them out to government agencies. They often ask how much capacity of a godown they can build with the land they have.
Here, I am providing you with a brief overview of the technical specifications related to construction that you need to keep in mind when lining up for NABARD subsidies.
Important Aspects :
1 Site Layout : The first aspect is that whenever we build godowns, you need to have a complete site layout map prepared. Get the map made correctly by your architect, showing the shape of your land and how it connects to the road. The construction capacity of your units will determine the NABARD subsidy you receive. As we mentioned earlier, the maximum subsidy benefit from NABARD is ₹1000, which is allowed for up to 5000 MT cases.
2 Registered with WDRA : NABARD has stated in its guidelines that the construction of your godown must adhere to the norms specified by the Warehousing Development and Regulatory Authority (WDRA) Act. This act was introduced by the Central Government to regulate the warehousing sector across India. According to NABARD’s provisions, for you to receive the final subsidy claim, your godown must be registered with WDRA.
NABARD’s Guidelines For Subsidy:
1 For Godowns with Height Above 4.5 Meters: The storage capacity is calculated as 1.8 metric tons per square meter of area.
2 For Godowns with Height Below 4.5 Meters : The storage capacity is calculated as 0.4 metric tons per cubic meter of volume.
3 If the Godown Uses Trusses: Ensure the height is measured from the bottom of the trusses to the floor.
4 If the Godown Has an RCC Roof: Measure 1 foot below the RCC roof to determine the height.
Key Points for Godown Structure Compliance for NABARD Subsidy:
1 Properly Ventilated: Your godowns should be properly ventilated. Rolling shutters, doors, and windows should be installed as per norms, and waterproofing facilities should be in place.
2 Design and Layout: When preparing the blueprint for your godowns, you need to specify that these points are addressed. The plinth level should be at least 2.5 feet high according to NABARD guidelines. Ensure the plinth height is 2.5 feet, and then align the storage stacking accordingly. Pay close attention to the plinth parameters.
3 Height Parameters: You need to pay attention to the height parameters. Ensure proper ventilation, rolling shutters, and windows are included. Additionally, consider the internal road mechanism; specify the width of roads inside the godowns.
