Q76: Scenario: "Precision Gears Ltd," a Small Enterprise owned by a Woman Entrepreneur, wants to apply for the "ZED Gold" certification in February 2026. The standard certification fee is applicable.
Question: Under the special dispensation for women entrepreneurs in the ZED scheme, what percentage of the certification cost is subsidized (waiver/reimbursement)?
✅ Correct Answer: D
While standard subsidies for ZED Certification range from 50% (Medium) to 80% (Micro), the Ministry of MSME introduced a special dispensation to encourage women-led development.
Under this provision, Women-owned MSMEs are eligible for 100% Subsidy (Free Certification) for ZED Certification.
Therefore, "Precision Gears Ltd" does not have to pay for the certification cost.
