What it pays
Goat unit of 10 Osmanabadi / Sangamneri does + 1 buck: 75% of ₹87,857 (₹65,893 as printed).
What the document says, word for word
The GR rounds the subsidy up to ₹65,893; our calculator floors to ₹65,892. For members aged 18–55 of a registered women’s co-operative of 20–30 NT-C women (or at least 90% NT-C members); one woman per family; not for anyone who got an individual animal-husbandry benefit in the last 5 years; 3% reserved for the disabled (6(2)–(3), 6(12), 13). First phase: 125 co-operatives (6(4)). Status unknown: the 09.03.2026 GR lists grazing, land and poultry as still paid but does not mention this goat scheme, and no later order was found. Only for families of the Nomadic Tribes (NT-C) category — Dhangar and similar communities as notified by the state — in all districts except Mumbai City and Mumbai Suburban. Funds come from the VJNT / OBC welfare department; the Punyashlok Ahilyadevi Maharashtra Sheep & Goat Development Corporation or the District Deputy Commissioner (Animal Husbandry) runs it.
