Frequently asked questions about PMS Scheme
- Is PMS Scheme open?
- It is listed as open, but confirm the status before you apply: The PMS guidelines were issued for 2021-22 to 2025-26. An Office of the Development Commissioner (MSME) memo of 2 April 2026 says a proposal to continue PMS up to 30 September 2026, or until the restructured scheme is approved (whichever is earlier), on the same terms, was under process with the Department of Expenditure. The Office amended the scheme on 7 September 2026 for events from 1 October 2026, and the PMS portal (launched 27 June 2026) is active, but we found no order extending PMS beyond 30 September 2026 when we checked on 20 October 2026. Confirm with the Office of the Development Commissioner (MSME) before you spend on a fair or registration. Budget 2026-27 provides ₹65 crore for PMS (Ministry of MSME, Notes on Demands for Grants 2026-27); no formal continuation order was found when checked on 20 October 2026. Status last verified: 20 Oct 2026.
