1. Purchase / Lease of minimum 20% of the saleable / leasable land area in the proposed EMC project, and;
2. ii. Investment of Rs. 300 crore or above for setting up electronics manufacturing facility (ies) in the EMC project.
3. iii. In case of North-Eastern States, Hill States and Union Territories (UTs), Purchase / Lease of minimum 10% of the saleable / leasable land area with an investment commitment of Rs.150 crore and above for setting up electronics manufacturing facility (ies) in the EMC project.

Common Facility Centre (CFC)

Common Facility Centre (CFC) will be a project located in an area where significant number of existing ESDM units are present and the focus is on upgrading common technical infrastructure and providing common facilities for the ESDM units , as mentioned in Annexure-III of these Guidelines. 2.4. Electronics Manufacturing Cluster (EMC) Project: Electronics Manufacturing Cluster (EMC) project means undeveloped / under-developed / semi-developed land parcels, preferably contiguous, where the focus is on development of basic infrastructure, amenities and other common facilities for Electronics System Design and Manufacturing (ESDM) units.

Project Parameters

1. The land parcel for setting up a new Electronics Manufacturing Cluster under the Scheme should not be less than 200 acres. The land parcel required in North-Eastern States, Hill States and Union Territories (UTs) should not be less than 100 acres.
2. Maximum of two land parcels within a radius of ½ Km will be considered as contiguous. Land parcels across the road will also be considered as contiguous.
3. In EMC projects, a minimum 70% of the utilisable land area (excluding internal development for roads, carriageways, green spaces, drainage, sewage etc and common infrastructure for utilities such as Power, Lighting, Waste Management, Effluent Treatment, Fire Fighting and Safety etc.) has to be allotted for processing activities and remaining area may be allotted for non-processing activities as included in list of desirable activities under the Scheme.
4. For EMC projects; financial assistance will be restricted to 50% of the project cost subject to a ceiling of Rs. 70 crore for every 100 acres of land. For larger areas, pro-rata ceiling would apply however not exceeding of Rs. 350 crore per project. The remaining project cost will be financed by the PIA with a minimum contribution of 50% of the project cost. 4.5. For CFCs; financial assistance will be restricted to 75% of the project cost subject to a ceiling of Rs.75 crore per project. The remaining project cost will be financed by the PIA with a minimum contribution of 25% of the project cost. 4.6. For expansion of EMC projects and CFCs under existing EMCs; the following shall be applicabl
