Scheme overview

Build the plan before you build the business.

The Prime Minister’s Employment Generation Programme supports eligible new micro enterprises through a credit-linked margin-money programme. KVIC is the national nodal agency; implementing agencies and banks have distinct roles in processing and appraisal.

The new-unit route combines the applicant’s own contribution with bank finance and eligible programme assistance under the applicable rules. Assistance is conditional, not an upfront payment from this website. Confirm current guidelines and programme continuation before committing to a project.
