If you are planning a polyhouse project in Rajasthan, this 2026 guide walks you through everything you need: realistic project cost, applicable government subsidies, step-by-step setup process, real-world use cases, common mistakes, and how to choose the right EPC partner. Massive onion & garlic production with price volatility — cold storage = arbitrage — making Rajasthan one of India's most attractive states for polyhouse investment.

Why Rajasthan is a strong market for Polyhouse
- Massive onion & garlic production with price volatility — cold storage = arbitrage
- Extreme heat (48°C+) requires specialised Daikin high-ambient engineering
- RIPS & RKVY provide added stamp duty exemption and capital support
- India's highest solar irradiation — ideal for solar cold storage
The state's primary execution clusters — Jaipur, Jodhpur, Kota, Udaipur — give project promoters fast access to skilled labour, civil contractors, transport corridors and consumer markets. AgriMotion's Rajasthan delivery model: Site survey within 5 business days. Custom high-ambient (50°C-rated) designs.
Polyhouse project cost in Rajasthan (2026 estimate)
| Indicative cost | Band |
|---|---|
| ₹35–50 L/acre | NVPH |
| ₹55–80 L/acre | Fan-Pad |
| MIDH subsidy capped at 2,500 sqm (max ≈ ₹12.5 L NVPH / ₹18.75 L fan-pad) | |
Final cost varies ±10% based on capacity, civil work, refrigeration tonnage and finish specifications. Rajasthan has typically higher construction costs compared to north India, but logistics from our Sirsaganj factory are factored into our BOQ so quoted prices include door-delivery.
Subsidies for Polyhouse in Rajasthan
NHB 35% capital subsidy. AIF 3% interest subvention. Rajasthan Investment Promotion Scheme (RIPS) adds capital subsidy and stamp duty exemption for agri-processing units.
For most polyhouse projects in Rajasthan, the realistic effective subsidy lands at 25–50% of capital cost when filed correctly. AgriMotion structures every project to maximise stack-eligibility — MIDH / NHB / PMEGP for capital subsidy, AIF for interest subvention, CGTMSE for collateral-free guarantee.
Common mistakes Rajasthan promoters make
- Under-sizing refrigeration for high-ambient conditions — leads to 20–30% energy overrun.
- Choosing the cheapest PUF panel supplier — low-density panels (30–35 kg/m³) fail in 3–5 years.
- Skipping the bankable DPR — subsidy claim is rejected without proper documentation.
- Ignoring AMC contracts — refrigeration without AMC has 2.5× higher breakdown frequency.
- Building before subsidy approval — pre-approval projects are often rejected in scrutiny.
What to look for in a polyhouse partner in Rajasthan
- ISI-grade GI pipe structures with 10-year galvanisation warranty
- 200 micron UV-stabilised film (NVPH) or Fan-Pad with cooling
- Integrated drip + fertigation + automation
- MIDH 50% subsidy filed via empanelled DPR consultants
