← Q11 Q13 →

Under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme associated with the Make in India initiative, incentive payments are determined based on:

A Total accumulated fixed assets owned by a company overseas
B Subsidies calculated entirely on total raw material consumption volumes
C Incremental sales achieved over a designated base year threshold
D Fixed government grants given prior to commencing any commercial production

Correct answer: (c) Incremental sales achieved over a designated base year threshold

Explanation

Option C is correct because PLI performance benchmarks rely on incremental sales growth achieved over a base year. Options A, C, and D misrepresent the incentive formula.
