The Market Access Support (MAS) intervention is designed to help Indian exporters enter and grow in overseas markets by offering funding and institutional backing for trade fairs, buyer meetings, and other market-connect activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Export Promotion Mission is jointly implemented by the Department of Commerce, Ministry of MSME and Ministry of Finance in coordination with Indian Missions abroad, Export Promotion Councils (EPCs), Commodity Boards and other industry associations. The MAS Intervention focuses on improving buyer connect and enhancing India\u2019s presence in global markets through structured and outcome-oriented market access interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the Market Access Support Intervention, structured financial and institutional support will be provided for activities including Buyer-Seller Meets (BSMs), participation in international trade fairs and exhibitions, Mega Reverse Buyer-Seller Meets (RBSMs) organised in India, and trade delegations to priority and emerging export markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A forward-looking three-to-five-year calendar of major market access events will be prepared and approved in advance, enabling exporters and organising agencies to plan participation well ahead of time and ensuring continuity of market development efforts. A minimum participation of 35 per cent MSMEs has been mandated for supported events, with special prioritisation being accorded to new geographies and smaller markets to encourage export diversification. Delegation size has been benchmarked at a minimum of 50 participants, with flexibility provided based on market conditions and strategic relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Event-level financial support ceilings and cost-sharing ratios have been rationalised, with preferential support being extended to priority sectors and markets. Small exporters with export turnover of up to \u20b975 lakh in the preceding year will be provided partial airfare support to encourage participation by new and small exporters. End-to-end processes for event listing, proposal submission, approvals, participant onboarding, fund release and monitoring will be enabled through https:\/\/trade.gov.in, ensuring transparency and ease of access for all stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mandatory online feedback mechanisms will be instituted for exporters participating in each supported event, covering parameters such as buyer quality, business leads generated and market relevance. Based on feedback and implementation learnings, the MAS guidelines will be progressively refined and institutionalised. A new component for Proofs-of-Concept and Product Demonstrations to potential overseas buyers, particularly in technology-intensive, emerging and sunrise sectors, will be notified shortly to complement existing market access interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additional digital tools for lead tracking, exporter follow-up and market intelligence integration will be rolled out in phases to strengthen outcome measurement. Through the launch of the Market Access Support Intervention, the Government aims to provide Indian exporters with predictable market-entry pathways, stronger buyer engagement and data-driven policy support, enabling deeper integration into global value chains and sustained export growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
