The PMEGP (Prime Minister’s Employment Generation Programme ) is a flagship scheme by the Government of India aimed at promoting self-employment and entrepreneurship. Implemented by the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) under the Ministry of MSME, the scheme provides financial assistance to individuals for starting new micro-enterprises in the non-farm sector. It is especially beneficial for people in rural and semi-urban areas looking to start businesses like manufacturing units or service centers, with a loan limit of up to ₹25 lakhs and subsidies ranging from 15% to 35%, depending on the applicant’s category and location.
To apply for a PMEGP loan, applicants must be at least 18 years old and have passed the 8th standard (for projects above ₹10 lakhs in manufacturing or ₹5 lakhs in services). The process includes submitting an online application, selecting a bank, and providing a detailed project report (DPR), which plays a crucial role in loan approval. Popular businesses under PMEGP include grocery shops, tailoring units, mobile service centers, and medical shops, among others. Importantly, the scheme does not require any collateral for loans up to ₹10 lakhs, making it ideal for first-time entrepreneurs.
