MSME Funding in India — Loans, Schemes & Government Finance
MSME Funding in India — Loans, Schemes & Government Finance
The Problem
India's 63 million MSMEs face a $530 billion credit gap. Banks demand collateral, lengthy documentation, and credit history that most small businesses cannot provide. Government schemes exist but are difficult to navigate without expert guidance.
The Impact
Without adequate funding, MSMEs cannot invest in machinery, working capital, technology, or expansion. Growth stalls, employment suffers, and businesses remain trapped below their potential despite strong fundamentals.
