Policy details
SummaryCabinet-approved overarching mission to make India a global hub for green hydrogen production, use, and export by 2030, with a total outlay of INR 19,744 crore (approx. USD 2.4 bn) spanning FY2023-24 to FY2029-30. Coordinates SIGHT production/electrolyser incentives, pilot projects, R&D, and enabling policy waivers.
Key thresholdsProduction target: 5 MMT/year of green hydrogen by 2030; associated renewable capacity addition: ~125 GW. Mission budget split: SIGHT INR 17,490 cr (88.6%), pilot projects INR 1,466 cr, R&D (SHIP) INR 400 cr, other INR 388 cr. Commissioning deadline for ISTS waiver eligibility: on or before 31 December 2030.
Support valueTotal INR 19,744 crore (~USD 2.4 bn) through FY2029-30
Practical implicationThe NGHM is the enabling umbrella — all SIGHT incentive eligibility, ISTS waivers, open-access benefits, and demand mandates derive from it, so project timelines must align with the 31 December 2030 commissioning cutoff to capture the full stack of benefits.
