DIC

District Industries Centres (DICs) are part of India’s state-level industrial promotion framework established to support Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and entrepreneurs at the grassroots level. They act as a single-window facilitation centre for a range of incentives, subsidies and support services under central and state industrial policies.

DIC incentives are state & district specific, meaning they vary from one state to another — but the core objective remains the same: to promote industrial development, encourage entrepreneurship, and make MSMEs competitive.
