Further, Department of Fertilizers granted permission for setting up of DAPINPK plants by Madhya Bharat Agro product Limited Unit-II, RCF-Thal, FACT-Kochi and Paradeep Phosphates Ltd with installed capacity 1.2 LMT , 5.5 LMT and 8 LMT per annum respectively to meet the demand of phosphatic fertilizers. Exploration of minerals for raw materials for DAP & other fertilizers in India have been given   priority in consultation with   Ministry of Mines , GSI, MECL & PDIL.

However, in view of the ongoing international prices of finished P&K fertilizers as well as its raw materials, Government of India has increased the P&K fertilizers subsidy under the Nutrient Based Subsidy scheme on 20.5.2021 & 13.10.2021 (giving special compensation on DAP and 3 most commonly used NPK fertilizers) for the year 2021-22, then further increased  substantially for Kharif-2022 (applicable from 01.4.2022 to 30.9.2022) and finally almost maintained the same level for Rabi-2022 (applicable from 1.10.2022 to 31.3.2023) so that these fertilizers are made available at affordable prices to the farmers. The per kg subsidy rates for nutrients viz. N, P, K and S under NBS scheme is as under:

| S: No.   | Nutrient   |   NBS (Rs. Per Kg of Nutrient) (from 01.04.2021 to 19.05.2021) |   NBS (Rs: Per Kg of Nutrient (from 20.05.2021 to 31.03.2022) ** |   NBS (Rs. Per Kg of Nutrient) (from 01.04.2022 to 30.09.2022) |   NBS (Rs: Per Kg of Nutrient) (from 01.10.2022 to 31.3.2023) |
