About this programme
SIDBI offers direct loans to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises for various purposes including machinery purchase, equipment financing, project finance, and working capital. These schemes form the core MSME lending portfolio and cover multiple sectors with different repayment tenures and loan structures.
The support is delivered through the programme’s own structure, and the form it takes is set by the issuing authority. The amount and form of support that actually apply to you depend on the programme’s rules and how your application is assessed — they are not fixed for every applicant.
