The MMR-EIS provides financial assistance to organizations / individuals for undertaking projects on environmental issues within the objectives of the MMR-EIS and in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
The MMR-EIS generally provides financial assistance in the form of grant-in-aid, however, the Society may also provide for projects depending on their cost recovery or income generating potential.
As the Society's funds are limited, maximum funding for a single project will normally be limited to a sum of Rs.50 lakhs. Larger projects (Rs.50 - Rs.75 lakhs) considered beneficial to the community at large, may be financed after securing approval of the Executive Committee of MMRDA. Projects above Rs.75 lakhs that are found useful may be recommended by the Society for direct financing by MMRDA
