OREANDA-NEWS. Russian Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, signed a decree on the allocation of 10 billion Rubles for compensation of costs in connection with the production of motor vehicles. As noted, it will permit to provide additional load of  production capacity in the I quarter of 2015 in the amount of about 110 thousand cars, to keep jobs and employees of enterprises of automotive and related industries. In addition, the relevance of these measures is due to the fact that in 2014 the cost of cars produced in Russia has increased significantly due to increased costs for the purchase imported components for assembly of cars by Russian automakers due to fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates, high inflation in Russia, as well as the rising prices at Russian suppliers that sell imported components, and in the world market for steel and ferrous metals. As a result, the profitability of production of cars in Russia fell by 10-15%, most of automakers are working now with a minimum level of profitability, writes "Finmarket" agency.

The subsidy is given in the amount of 90% of the cost for production, but no more than the maximum for the subsidy. It is indicated that the reason for the refusal to grant subsidies, in particular, is the lack of budget allocations, provided by the federal law on the federal budget for the financial year and planning period, and the limits of budgetary obligations duly approved for the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation.

The maximum amount of the subsidy depends on the amount of cars produced in 2014. Thus, companies, more than 50% of the production of which has passenger cars, will receive grants of up to 400 million Rubles, if it was produced less than 40 thousand cars in 2014. If the production ranged from 40 thousand to 110 thousand units, the subsidy amount is up to 600 million Rubles. In the case of the production from 110 thousand to 180 thousand cars, the subsidy will be up to 1 billion Rubles, if the production exceeded 180 thousand cars, the grant will be up to 2 billion Rubles.

Subsidies increase if organizations have scientific and technical engineering center. Then the amount of compensation would be as follows: production of cars less than 40 thousand units - subsidies will be 500 million Rubles, from 40 thousand to 110 thousand cars - up to 1 billion Rubles, from 110 thousand to 180 thousand cars - up to 2 billion Rubles, over 180,000 cars - up to 4 billion rubles.

Organizations, more than 50% of the production of which includes buses with weight up to 3.5 tons and trucks up to 3.5 tonnes and from 3.5 to 12 tons, will receive a subsidy of up to 100 million Rubles, if in 2014 it was produced less than 30 thousand vehicles. If the production ranged from 30 thousand to 40 thousand units, the subsidy will be 200 million Rubles. In case of production from 40 thousand to 50 thousand vehicles, a subsidy will be up to 400 million Rubles, if the production exceeded 50 thousand vehicles - up to 1 billion Rubles.
