Is Your Project Covered Under AIF?
AIF is built for post-harvest management & farming infrastructure. Here's where common project types actually stand, per the official AIF eligible-projects list.
Food Processing & Milling
Flour / rice / dal milling, cleaning-grading, cold stores, packaging & integrated primary-secondary processing units.
Animal Feed & Fodder Units
Feed blocks, fodder meals & pellets under "fodder crops," and feed as an integrated secondary product of grain/pulse milling. Standalone secondary units alone don't qualify.
Solar for Farms & Infra
PM-KUSUM components A, B & C — solar power plants, standalone pumps, and solarizing grid-connected pumps — financeable directly under AIF.
Poultry & Dairy Units
AIF covers crop-side post-harvest infra, not livestock. We route poultry, hatchery, dairy & meat-processing projects to the Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Development Fund (AHIDF).
Based on the official AIF "Eligible Projects" list (agriinfra.dac.gov.in) and AHIDF guidelines (dahd.gov.in) — every project is verified against current guidelines before we file it.
How We Work
A structured path from first conversation to funds in hand.
Consultation
We understand your business idea, project stage, and funding needs.
Scheme Match
We identify the right scheme — AIF, AHIDF, PMFME, or a state program — for your project.
DPR & Documents
We prepare a bankable, engineering-backed Detailed Project Report.
Bank / NABARD Liaison
We submit and follow up with lending institutions on your behalf.
Sanction & Disbursement
We track your application through sanction and fund release.
What AIF Actually Saves You
A simple, real illustration for a ₹1 crore project loan.
Illustrative first-year figures for a ₹1 crore loan at a typical ~10% rate, based on AIF's published 3% p.a. interest subvention. The subvention applies to loans up to ₹2 crore for a maximum of 7 years; interest falls as you repay, and your actual rate depends on the lender.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund (AIF)?
A ₹1 lakh crore Government of India financing facility offering 3% p.a. interest subvention for post-harvest management and viable farming-asset infrastructure. The subvention applies to loans up to ₹2 crore per project, for a maximum of 7 years.
Are feed mills, poultry or solar projects covered?
Grain/pulse milling and integrated feed & fodder units are AIF-eligible; solar power plants and pump solarization under PM-KUSUM are directly financeable under AIF. Poultry and dairy fall outside AIF's crop-focused scope — we route those to AHIDF instead.
Do I need collateral?
Loans up to ₹2 crore under AIF are eligible for a credit guarantee through CGTMSE, and the guarantee fee is paid by the government. Whether a lender still asks for security is the lender's decision, so we clarify it with your bank at the start.
How long does the process take?
Timelines vary by lender, but a well-prepared DPR meaningfully speeds up appraisal and sanction.
Do you work outside Andhra Pradesh & Telangana?
Yes. We support agri and food businesses across India with online consultation and documentation, and our DPR Builder works for any state. We visit in person in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
