The programmes have been designed to give a clear understanding of the PRIP revised scheme's structure, eligibility and funding support, walk through of the application form step by step and clarify doubts and answer queries to ensure a smooth process.

The DoP has given deadline to register on PRIP Portal by November 3, 2025 and deadline for application submission by November 10, 2025.

While inviting applications, the DoP has notified amendments to the scheme and issued revised guidelines with a view to enhance the impact of the scheme and make it better suited to address the requirements of all stakeholders. The application window had opened on October 1, 2025 through dedicated portal (https://prip.pharmadept.gov.in) to drive a fully digital application process.
