What the document says, word for word

Your 75% (or 90%) is the Central Silk Board share plus the State share; it depends on your state putting up its share. Special-status states get 90% for everyone; we cannot tell them from your state alone, so we show 75%. This pattern is for states outside the North East — NE projects follow separate project-based funding. The package covers plantation, irrigation, rearing house, equipment and disinfectants; parts can be moved within the package ceiling (32).

“The fund sharing pattern (%) for individual beneficiary-oriented Silk Samagra-2 components other than States in NE region: Category (Small and Marginal Farmers) — General States GOI (CSB) 50% State 25% Beneficiary 25%; General States – For SCSP & TSP 65% 25% 10%; Special Status States (for General, SCSP & TSP Category) 80% 10% 10%”
