NHB Subsidy 2026: New Online Credit Linked Subsidy Portal Launch

The National Horticulture Board (NHB) has introduced a transformative digital update to streamline industrial subsidies for the horticulture sector. As per the NHB Circular dated August 11, 2026, the board has officially launched the 'Horticulture Project Management System' (HPMS) to automate the credit-linked back-ended subsidy process. ## Key points - **Real-Time Tracking:** SME exporters and agri-manufacturers can now monitor the status of their Letter of Intent (LOI) and final subsidy release. - **Direct Benefit Transfer:** The system integrates with banks to ensure faster disbursement of subsidy amounts directly to the loan accounts. - **Paperless Documentation:** Mandatory uploads for detailed project reports (DPR) and land documents are now fully digital. ## What this means for exporters This update significantly reduces the turnaround time for claiming NHB subsidies on cold storage, post-harvest infrastructure, and commercial horticulture projects. By eliminating physical touchpoints, the risk of delays in project funding is minimized. **Who should act now:** Agri-exporters planning new cold chain facilities or high-density orchards should register on the new HPMS portal immediately to secure their eligibility.
