TOURISM POLICY

About Maharashtra Tourism Policy 2024

The Maharashtra Tourism Policy 2024 has been introduced by the Government of Maharashtra to position the state as one of India’s leading global tourism destinations.
The policy lays a strong foundation for sustainable, inclusive, and investment-driven tourism growth over the next decade.

It aims to attract private investments of over ₹1 lakh crore and generate around 18 lakh employment opportunities across various tourism segments — including hotels, resorts, adventure tourism, wellness, rural tourism, heritage circuits, MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences & Exhibitions), and coastal tourism.

The policy focuses on:

  • Promoting balanced regional tourism development across all districts.
  • Encouraging new-age tourism such as digital nomad hubs, eco-tourism, and experiential stays.
  • Improving infrastructure and connectivity through collaboration with the private sector.
  • Preserving local culture, heritage, and environment through responsible tourism initiatives.
  • Streamlining approvals and providing a single-window clearance system for faster implementation of tourism projects.

Through this policy, Maharashtra envisions becoming a world-class tourism hub by 2034, creating memorable experiences for visitors while enabling investors and entrepreneurs to participate in the state’s growing tourism ecosystem.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What exactly does a "Capital Investment Subsidy" cover?

A capital subsidy is a direct financial grant based on a percentage of your fixed capital investment (FCI). This typically covers the cost of land development, building construction, and essential equipment (like HVAC systems or industrial kitchen gear). In many regions, this subsidy ranges from 15% to 20% of your investment, often capped at a specific amount (e.g., ₹20 Cr to ₹50 Cr depending on the state).

Can I get a subsidy for renovating or expanding my current hotel?

Yes. Most policies include “Expansion” or “Modernization” categories. However, there is usually a threshold: for example, you may need to increase your room capacity by at least 25% to 50% to qualify as an expansion. Renovation subsidies often focus on upgrading to “Star” category standards or implementing green technologies.

Are there specific employment requirements to remain eligible?

Many state governments use subsidies to drive local employment. A common condition is that you must ensure a certain percentage—often 70% or more—of your total staff are local residents. Failing to maintain these employment levels can lead to a partial or full clawback of the subsidy.

How long must the hotel remain operational after receiving the funds?

Subsidies are not “free money” without strings. You are typically required to keep the unit operational for a minimum period—usually 3 to 5 years—from the date the subsidy is disbursed. If you close or sell the business before this period ends, you may be required to refund a pro-rated amount (e.g., 50%–80%) of the grant.

What is the deadline to apply for a subsidy?

Timing is critical. Most schemes require you to submit your application within one year of commencing commercial operations (the date you issue your first guest bill). Some programs also require “Pre-Registration” before you even begin construction to ensure the project meets the policy’s specific eligibility criteria.
