Erklärung सब्सिडी देना in your Level:
At the A1 level, you don't need to worry about the complex economics of 'सब्सिडी देना' (subsidi denā). Just think of it as 'The government gives money to help people.' Imagine you are buying something expensive, and the government pays for half of it. That is 'सब्सिडी देना'. In simple Hindi, you can think of it like 'Sarkar paise deti hai' (Government gives money). You will mostly see this word in signs or hear it on the news. It is a compound verb, which means it has two parts: 'सब्सिडी' (the thing) and 'देना' (the action). Even though 'subsidy' is an English word, Hindi speakers use it all the time. At this stage, just recognize that it involves financial help from the government for things like gas, food, or electricity. Practice saying 'Sarkar subsidy deti hai' to get used to the sounds. Don't worry about the past tense yet, just focus on the present idea of help.

At the A2 level, you can start using 'सब्सिडी देना' in basic sentences about your daily life or the news. You should know that 'सब्सिडी' is a feminine noun. This is important when you talk about the past. For example, if you want to say 'The government gave a subsidy,' you say 'Sarkar ne subsidy di.' The 'di' is feminine because 'subsidy' is feminine. You might use this word when talking about why your electricity bill is low or why the bus fare is cheap. You can also use it with the word 'par' (on). For example, 'Gas par subsidy' (Subsidy on gas). This level is about connecting the word to specific items. You can also start recognizing the word in simple newspaper headlines like 'Kisanon ko subsidy' (Subsidy to farmers). It's a very useful word because India has many government schemes, and knowing this word helps you understand what people are talking about in the market or on the bus.

At the B1 level, you should be able to discuss the purpose of 'सब्सिडी देना'. You can explain *why* the government provides subsidies. For instance, you could say, 'Sarkar kisanon ki madad karne ke liye subsidy deti hai' (The government gives subsidies to help farmers). You are now moving beyond just identifying the word to using it in complex sentences with 'kyunki' (because) or 'isliye' (therefore). You should also be comfortable with different tenses: future ('Sarkar subsidy degi'), present continuous ('Sarkar subsidy de rahi hai'), and the infinitive ('Subsidy dena zaroori hai'). You might also encounter the term in discussions about the environment, such as subsidies for electric cars or solar panels. This is a great level to start comparing 'subsidy' with 'discount' (chhoot) and understanding that 'subsidy' is more official and institutional. You should be able to follow a basic news report about the budget where this word is mentioned multiple times.
At the B2 level, you can use 'सब्सिडी देना' to debate social and economic issues. You should be able to discuss the pros and cons of subsidies. For example, you might argue about whether 'सब्सिडी देना' is good for the economy in the long run or if it increases the 'raajkoshiya ghaata' (fiscal deficit). Your grammar should be precise, correctly using the 'ne' construction in the past tense and understanding how to use the word in the passive voice ('Subsidy di jaani chahiye' - Subsidy should be given). You can also use related terms like 'anudan' (grant) and 'riyayat' (concession) and know when to switch between them. At this level, you are expected to understand the nuance of 'Direct Benefit Transfer' where the act of 'सब्सिडी देना' happens through a bank account. You can read editorial pieces in Hindi newspapers like 'Dainik Jagran' or 'Navbharat Times' that analyze the government's subsidy policies and express your own opinion on these topics using appropriate vocabulary.

You can use advanced grammatical structures, such as the conditional ('Agar sarkar ne samay par subsidy na di hoti, to kisan sankat mein hote'). You are also familiar with the more formal Sanskritized term 'anudan' and can use it in formal reports or speeches. You can participate in high-level discussions about the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its rules on 'सब्सिडी देना' for agriculture. Your vocabulary includes related technical terms like 'pratyaksh laabh antaran' (Direct Benefit Transfer) and 'vittiya bojh' (financial burden). You can read and critique government policy documents and white papers written in Hindi that deal with the allocation of subsidies.

You understand the historical evolution of the subsidy regime in India, from the Green Revolution to the current digital era. You can discuss the philosophical underpinnings of 'सब्सिडी देना' as a tool for distributive justice versus its critique from a neoliberal perspective, all in fluent, nuanced Hindi.

सब्सिडी देना in 30 Sekunden

  • सब्सिडी देना means 'to subsidize'. It is a formal term used mainly in economic and government contexts in Hindi.
  • It is a compound verb where 'subsidi' is feminine. Use 'di' in the past tense with the 'ne' construction.
  • Commonly used for essential items like gas, electricity, and fertilizer to help the poor and middle class.
  • While 'subsidi' is a loanword, it is more common in spoken and news Hindi than the formal word 'anudan'.

The phrase सब्सिडी देना (subsidi denā) is a modern Hindi compound verb that combines the English loanword 'subsidy' with the Hindi verb 'denā' (to give). In a literal sense, it means 'to provide a subsidy.' However, its usage goes far beyond a simple financial transaction; it represents a core pillar of socio-economic policy in the Hindi-speaking world, particularly in India. When you hear this term, it usually refers to the government or an organization paying part of the cost of a product or service so that the price remains low for the end consumer. This is common in sectors like agriculture, energy, and education.

Economic Context
It is used when discussing the national budget, where the finance minister might announce plans to support farmers by lowering the cost of fertilizers. In this context, 'सब्सिडी देना' implies a strategic investment by the state to ensure food security.

सरकार ने सौर ऊर्जा उपकरणों पर सब्सिडी देने का निर्णय लिया है। (The government has decided to provide a subsidy on solar energy equipment.)

Beyond the government, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) or large corporations might 'सब्सिडी देना' for social causes. For instance, a private school might subsidize the fees for underprivileged children. The term is inherently formal and serious, often appearing in newspapers, news broadcasts, and academic discussions. It is rarely used in casual, domestic chores unless the conversation turns to the rising cost of living or utility bills like LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), which is a major topic of discussion in Indian households regarding subsidies.

Social Impact
The act of 'सब्सिडी देना' is often seen as a tool for social justice, aimed at bridging the gap between the rich and the poor by making essential services accessible to everyone regardless of their financial status.

गरीब छात्रों को उच्च शिक्षा के लिए सरकार सब्सिडी देती है। (The government subsidizes higher education for poor students.)

Understanding this word requires an appreciation of the 'Mixed Economy' model that India follows. It is not just a financial term; it is a political promise. When a politician says they will 'सब्सिडी देंगे' (will give subsidy), it is a major campaign point. It reflects the paternalistic role of the state in supporting its citizens. For a learner, mastering this word opens up the ability to discuss current affairs, economics, and social issues in Hindi with a high degree of precision.

Grammatical Structure
Note that 'सब्सिडी' acts as the object of the verb 'देना'. When you use it in the past tense with the 'ne' construction, the verb will agree with 'सब्सिडी' (feminine), hence 'सब्सिडी दी' (gave subsidy).

क्या आपने अपनी गैस सब्सिडी छोड़ दी? (Did you give up your gas subsidy? - Note the feminine agreement).

Using सब्सिडी देना correctly requires an understanding of Hindi's case markers and verb conjugation. Since 'सब्सिडी' is a feminine noun, it influences the verb in certain tenses. The sentence structure usually follows: [Subject] + [Recipient/Target + ko/par] + [सब्सिडी] + [Verb 'देना']. For example, to say 'The government gives a subsidy to farmers,' you would say 'सरकार किसानों को सब्सिडी देती है' (Sarkār kisānon ko subsidi detī hai).

Present Tense
In the habitual present, 'देना' changes to 'देता/देती/देते' depending on the gender and number of the subject. 'नगर पालिका कचरा प्रबंधन पर सब्सिडी देती है' (The municipality provides a subsidy on waste management).

वे इलेक्ट्रिक वाहनों पर भारी सब्सिडी दे रहे हैं। (They are giving heavy subsidies on electric vehicles.)

In the past tense, when using the ergative marker 'ने' (ne), the verb 'देना' becomes 'दिया' or 'दी'. Because 'सब्सिडी' is feminine, if it is the direct object, the verb becomes 'दी' (dī). 'सरकार ने सब्सिडी दी' (The government gave a subsidy). This is a common point of confusion for learners who might expect 'दिया' because the subject 'Sarkar' is often treated as masculine or neutral in other contexts, but the rule of object-verb agreement applies here.

Future Tense
The future tense is used extensively in political promises. 'हम अगले साल से मुफ्त बिजली पर सब्सिडी देंगे' (We will give a subsidy on free electricity from next year). Here, 'देंगे' agrees with the subject 'हम' (we).

क्या सरकार नई कंपनियों को सब्सिडी देगी? (Will the government provide subsidies to new companies?)

Another important usage is in the passive voice or impersonal constructions, which are frequent in official documents. 'सब्सिडी दी जाएगी' (Subsidy will be given). This focuses on the action rather than the actor. You will see this on signs at government offices or in the fine print of subsidy applications. Using the word in this way sounds very professional and authoritative.

Conditional Usage
'अगर सरकार सब्सिडी दे, तो व्यापार बढ़ सकता है।' (If the government provides a subsidy, then business can grow.) Using the subjunctive 'दे' (de) adds a layer of nuance to your Hindi.

बिना सब्सिडी दिए यह परियोजना संभव नहीं है। (Without giving a subsidy, this project is not possible.)

If you are in India, सब्सिडी देना is a word you cannot escape. It is ubiquitous in the public sphere. The primary place you will encounter it is in the news. Every evening, news anchors on channels like NDTV India or Republic Bharat engage in heated debates about whether the government should 'सब्सिडी देना' for fuel or if it is a burden on the taxpayer. The word is often paired with 'बोझ' (bojh - burden) or 'राहत' (raahat - relief), depending on the speaker's political leaning.

The Budget Speech
During the annual Union Budget (Kendriya Budget) presentation in February, the word 'सब्सिडी' is used dozens of times. The Finance Minister outlines the allocation for food, fertilizer, and petroleum subsidies. Economists then analyze these figures on television, discussing the fiscal deficit.

बजट में खाद पर सब्सिडी देने की घोषणा की गई। (The announcement to provide a subsidy on fertilizer was made in the budget.)

Another very common practical setting is at a gas agency or a bank. India has a system called DBTL (Direct Benefit Transfer for LPG), where the subsidy amount is directly credited to the consumer's bank account. You might hear a customer asking a bank clerk, 'मेरी सब्सिडी कब आएगी?' (When will my subsidy come?) or 'क्या बैंक सब्सिडी दे रहा है?' (Is the bank giving the subsidy?). In this context, it’s a matter of daily survival and household budgeting.

Political Rallies
Politicians often use this term during election campaigns to woo voters. They might promise to 'सब्सिडी देना' for electricity or water. It becomes a symbol of the 'Welfare State'.

चुनाव से पहले नेता सब्सिडी देने के वादे करते हैं। (Before elections, leaders make promises of giving subsidies.)

In academic and corporate settings, the word is used when discussing 'Start-up India' or industrial incentives. A CEO might mention that the government is 'सब्सिडी दे रही है' for manufacturing units in certain zones. This makes the word essential for anyone looking to do business in India or understand its economic landscape. It is a bridge between the high-flown language of policy and the grounded reality of the common citizen.

Educational Context
In universities like JNU or DU, students often protest against the 'cut' in subsidies for hostels or books, using the phrase 'सब्सिडी देना बंद मत करो' (Don't stop giving subsidies).

शिक्षा पर सब्सिडी देना देश के भविष्य के लिए जरूरी है। (Providing a subsidy on education is necessary for the country's future.)

One of the most common mistakes English speakers make when using सब्सिडी देना is treating it as a masculine noun. In Hindi, English loanwords ending in 'ee' (ई) sounds are almost always treated as feminine. Therefore, saying 'सब्सिडी दिया' (subsidi diyā) in the past tense is grammatically incorrect. It should always be 'सब्सिडी दी' (subsidi dī). This small error can immediately mark you as a beginner.

Confusion with 'Discount'
Another frequent error is confusing 'सब्सिडी' with 'छूट' (chhūt - discount). While both involve paying less, a 'discount' is usually a commercial reduction in price by a seller, whereas a 'subsidy' is a financial support provided by a third party (like the government). You wouldn't ask a shopkeeper for a 'subsidy' on a shirt; you would ask for a 'discount'.

Incorrect: दुकानदार ने मुझे चीनी पर सब्सिडी दी। (The shopkeeper gave me a subsidy on sugar - unless he's a government agent, this is wrong).

Learners also struggle with the preposition 'पर' (par - on). In English, we say 'subsidize something,' but in Hindi, we often say 'something *par* subsidy dena.' For example, 'khād par subsidi' (subsidy on fertilizer). Forgetting the 'par' can make the sentence sound disjointed. It's not 'khād subsidi dena,' but 'khād par subsidi dena.'

Pronunciation Pitfalls
Many learners pronounce the 's' in subsidy as a heavy 'sh' (श), making it 'shubsidi'. While this is common in some regional accents, the standard pronunciation uses the soft 's' (स). Aim for 'sub-si-dee' with a clear Hindi 'd' (ड) sound.

Correct: क्या आप सब्सिडी के लिए पात्र हैं? (Are you eligible for the subsidy?)

Finally, avoid using 'सब्सिडी देना' for personal gifts or loans. If you are helping a friend with money, you are 'मदद करना' (helping) or 'उधार देना' (lending), not 'सब्सिडी देना'. The term is strictly reserved for institutional and economic support. Using it for a personal loan might sound like you are treating your friend like a government project, which could be seen as humorous or slightly rude.

Overusing Loanwords
While 'सब्सिडी' is widely accepted, in very formal Hindi writing (like a thesis), you should use 'अनुदान' (anudan). Using the English loanword in a highly Sanskritized context might feel out of place.

Formal: सरकार कृषि क्षेत्र में अनुदान प्रदान करती है। (The government provides grants/subsidies in the agricultural sector.)

While सब्सिडी देना is the most common way to express this idea in modern Hindi, there are several other terms you should know to sound more like a native speaker or to understand formal documents. The most direct formal alternative is अनुदान देना (anudan denā). This word specifically means 'to provide a grant' and is the term used in the Hindi version of the Indian Constitution and official government gazettes.

सब्सिडी देना vs. आर्थिक सहायता देना
'आर्थिक सहायता देना' (ārthik sahāyatā denā) means 'to give financial assistance'. This is a broader term. While a subsidy is a type of financial assistance, not all financial assistance is a subsidy. For example, disaster relief funds are 'financial assistance' but not necessarily a 'subsidy'.

भूकंप पीड़ितों को सरकार ने आर्थिक सहायता दी। (The government gave financial aid to earthquake victims.)

Another related term is छूट देना (chhūt denā), which means 'to give a discount' or 'to give an exemption'. This is often used for 'Tax exemptions' (टैक्स में छूट). While a subsidy involves the government paying for you, an exemption involves the government not taking money from you. It's a subtle but important distinction in economic discussions.

सब्सिडी देना vs. रियायत देना
'रियायत देना' (riyāyat denā) means 'to give a concession'. This is often heard in the context of Indian Railways, where senior citizens or students get a 'concession' on tickets. It is very similar to a subsidy but is usually applied to a specific group of people rather than a whole product category.

रेलवे वरिष्ठ नागरिकों को टिकट में रियायत देता है। (Railways gives concessions to senior citizens on tickets.)

In technical economic Hindi, you might also come across सहायकी (sahāyakī). This is the pure Hindi word for 'subsidy'. However, it is extremely rare in spoken Hindi and even in newspapers. You will only find it in textbooks or high-level academic papers. If you use 'सहायकी देना' in a conversation, people might not understand you immediately, so stick to 'सब्सिडी देना' for general use.

सब्सिडी देना vs. प्रोत्साहन देना
'प्रोत्साहन देना' (protsāhan denā) means 'to give an incentive'. Subsidies are often given as incentives to promote a certain industry. For example, 'सरकार निर्यात को प्रोत्साहन देने के लिए सब्सिडी देती है' (The government gives subsidies to incentivize exports).

हमें नए स्टार्टअप्स को प्रोत्साहन देना चाहिए। (We should give incentives to new startups.)

Understanding these synonyms allows you to navigate different registers of Hindi. Whether you are reading a formal report, watching the news, or having a political debate at a tea stall, you will be able to pick the right word for the right situation.

How Formal Is It?

Wusstest du?

Hindi is full of English loanwords for modern economic concepts because the Indian administrative and banking systems were heavily influenced by British models during the colonial period.

Häufige Fehler
  • सरकार ने सब्सिडी दिया। (Sarkār ne subsidi diyā.) → सरकार ने सब्सिडी दी। (Sarkār ne subsidi dī.)

    Subsidy is feminine, so the past tense verb must be 'di', not 'diya'.

  • दुकानदार सब्सिडी दे रहा है। (Dukāndār subsidi de rahā hai.) → दुकानदार छूट दे रहा है। (Dukāndār chhūt de rahā hai.)

    A shopkeeper gives a 'discount' (chhoot), not a 'subsidy'.

  • खाद सब्सिडी देना। (Khād subsidi denā.) → खाद पर सब्सिडी देना। (Khād par subsidi denā.)

    You need the postposition 'par' (on) to connect the item to the subsidy.

  • वह सब्सिडी करना चाहता है। (Vah subsidi karnā chāhtā hai.) → वह सब्सिडी देना चाहता है। (Vah subsidi denā chāhtā hai.)

    The correct verb to pair with subsidy is 'dena' (to give), not 'karna' (to do).

  • सब्सिडी का पैसा मेरा खाता में आया। (Subsidi kā paisā merā khātā mein āyā.) → सब्सिडी का पैसा मेरे खाते में आया। (Subsidi kā paisā mere khāte mein āyā.)

    This is a general grammar error with postpositions, but common when talking about subsidies. 'Khata' becomes 'khate' before 'mein'.

Wortherkunft

'सब्सिडी' (subsidi) is a direct loanword from the English word 'subsidy', which itself comes from the Latin 'subsidium' (meaning aid or support). 'देना' (denā) is a native Indo-Aryan verb derived from the Sanskrit root 'dā' (to give).

Ursprüngliche Bedeutung: The English 'subsidy' originally referred to troops held in reserve or financial aid granted by Parliament to the King. In Hindi, it has always been used in the modern economic sense.

Indo-European (Subsidium -> English -> Hindi; Sanskrit 'dā' -> Hindi 'denā').

Kultureller Kontext

Be careful when discussing subsidies in a critical way; for many people, these are life-saving supports, not just economic numbers.

In the US or UK, 'subsidies' are often associated with corporate welfare or farming. In India, they are also a huge part of the middle-class experience (e.g., LPG gas cylinders).

The 'GiveItUp' campaign by PM Narendra Modi, asking wealthy Indians to stop taking the LPG subsidy. The National Food Security Act, which is a massive exercise in 'सब्सिडी देना'. Economic Survey of India (an annual document that discusses subsidies in depth).

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Technically, it is an English loanword, but it is used so frequently in Hindi (even in villages) that it is considered part of the modern Hindi vocabulary.

It is feminine. This is why we say 'सब्सिडी दी' (subsidi dī) and 'बड़ी सब्सिडी' (baṛī subsidi).

No, that would be 'छूट देना' (chhūt denā). 'सब्सिडी देना' is for government or institutional support.

You can say 'सब्सिडी वाला' (subsidi vālā) or more formally 'रियायती' (riyāyatī).

The most direct economic opposite is 'कर लगाना' (kar lagānā - to tax).

'Anudan' means 'grant'. While similar, 'anudan' is often for a lump sum for a project, while 'subsidy' is usually per unit of a product.

Because the technical terms for the gas system in India were introduced in English, and the English terms became standard even in regional languages.

It follows the verb 'dena'. For example: 'Sarkar degi' (Government will give), 'Hum denge' (We will give).

It means to voluntarily give up your right to a subsidy so that the government can use that money for poorer people.

Yes, 'सब्सिडी दी जाती है' (Subsidy is given) is very common in official announcements.
