Provides up to ₹12 Lakhs to startups in Kerala with majority ownership held by women or transgender founders to support prototype validation and productisation. This track mirrors KSUM's standard Productisation Grant in structure and milestone-based disbursal but carries a higher ceiling (₹12 lakh versus ₹7 lakh) to address the additional funding barriers women and transgender founders often face in Kerala's startup ecosystem. Majority ownership by a woman or transgender founder is the differentiating eligibility condition, alongside the standard KSUM Unique ID and Kerala-incorporation requirements shared with the general track.
