Government Liaising & Subsidies

India’s central and state governments periodically introduce subsidies, incentive schemes and financial support programmes specifically designed to promote film production, crew employment and large-scale shooting activity within the country. Knowing how to access them — correctly and on time — can meaningfully reduce your production costs.

Are there government subsidies available for filming in India?

Yes. Both central and state governments in India offer various subsidies, rebates, and incentive schemes for film production, crew employment, and location-based shoots. Eligibility varies by format, scale, location, and production structure. 8th Wonder Productions advises on and manages the full access process for qualifying productions.

International productions filming in India — particularly those structured as co-productions under bilateral treaty agreements — may be eligible for specific government incentives and financial support. Our team assesses eligibility and manages the application and compliance process from start to finish.

Requirements vary by scheme and state, but typically include production company registration documents, shoot schedules, crew and budget breakdowns, and compliance declarations. 8th Wonder Productions manages the complete documentation process, ensuring every submission is accurate, complete, and correctly filed.
