Overview
What is PMEGP Loan?
PMEGP (Prime Minister's Employment Generation Programme) is a credit-linked subsidy scheme administered by KVIC (Khadi and Village Industries Commission) and implemented through nationalized banks. It aims to generate employment by helping individuals and groups set up new micro enterprises in manufacturing and service sectors.
Under PMEGP, borrowers receive a <strong>government subsidy of 15%–35%</strong> of the project cost as a non-repayable grant, while the remaining amount is provided as a term loan by the bank. The beneficiary must contribute 5%–10% of the project cost as margin money.
PrimeWealth Advisory provides complete assistance — from project report preparation to application filing on the PMEGP e-portal and bank coordination.
