What Is a PMEGP Loan?
PMEGP is a government-backed, credit-linked subsidy scheme run by the Ministry of MSME. KVIC is the national nodal agency, implemented at state and district level through KVIC Directorates, State KVIBs, DICs, the Coir Board and participating banks.
You take a loan from a bank to set up a new micro-enterprise, and the government provides a margin money subsidy that reduces your effective loan liability — adjusted against the loan, not paid to you upfront
Who Is Eligible
Age 18+, No Income Ceiling
Any individual above 18 years can apply — there's no income limit.
8th Pass, Above a Threshold
Required only above ₹10L (manufacturing) or ₹5L (services); relaxed below that.
New Units, Mainly
Existing PMEGP/REGP/MUDRA units may apply separately for a second loan.
Implemented Through
KVIC
State KVIBs
District Industries Centres
Participating Banks
Coir Board
How Much Loan Is Available
Project Cost Limits, By Sector
Your own contribution is 10% of project cost for general category applicants and 5% for special category (new units) — the bank finances the rest as a term loan, with subsidy built into that structure.
Up to ₹50L
Manufacturing
New units in the manufacturing sector, subsidy-eligible up to this ceiling.
Up to ₹20L
Business / Service
New units offering a service or trading business, subsidy-eligible up to this ceiling.
₹1Cr / ₹25L
Second Loan (Upgradation)
For existing PMEGP/REGP/MUDRA units: manufacturing up to ₹1 crore, service up to ₹25 lakh — after 3 years profitable operation.
| Category | Urban | Rural |
|---|---|---|
| General | 15% | 25% |
| Special (SC/ST/OBC/Minority/Women/Ex-Servicemen/Differently-abled/Transgender/NER/Aspirational Districts/Hill & Border areas) | 25% | 35% |
Subsidy for new units, as a percentage of project cost. For the second loan (upgradation), subsidy is generally a flat 15% for all categories — 20% in NER and Hill States — regardless of urban or rural location. A special category claim needs a valid, current certificate; without one you’re treated as general category.

Avoid the Back-and-Forth
Why a PMEGP Application Gets Rejected or Delayed
Incomplete or generic report
Reports that don't reflect your actual project and location get sent back.
Unrealistic projections
Overstated revenue or understated cost affects repayment-capacity assessment.
Missing category documents
Special category claims without valid certificates default to general category.
Project cost above limits
Proposals exceeding the ceiling aren't eligible for subsidy on the excess.
Ineligible project type
Already-running businesses (outside second-loan) or excluded activities aren't accepted.
Missing quotations
Gaps in machinery or cost documentation make project cost hard to verify.

Had to give two stars for the lack of commitment from the team.
Before paying for the service, I have enquired if there is any time restriction or restriction on number of changes and was told no. However Second report was erroneous and had to make corrections for the points missed.
Now the team wants me to pay additional amount for making changes related to Fiinancials.
Extremely disappointed

I would like to thanks Sharda Associates for their timely and pocket friendly services!! When it comes to applying for any loan in bank or under any government scheme, project reports play very important role in its approval . I got my project report prepared by Sharda Associates...which they prepared very professionally on time and also did multiple corrections whenever it was asked by bank. I will suggest everyone to take services from Sharda Associates for the best project reports and quick loan approvals from the bank or government scheme.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's both — a bank loan with a government margin money subsidy component built into the structure, not a separate upfront cash payment.
No. A project report or DPR is required for the bank and the implementing agency to appraise your project.
New units are the primary focus. Existing PMEGP, REGP or MUDRA units that have repaid their first loan and been profitable for a set period may apply for a second loan for upgradation, subject to scheme conditions.
Up to 35% of project cost, for special category applicants setting up a unit in a rural area.
No — the second-loan subsidy is generally a flat rate, around 15% (higher in NER and Hill States), applicable to all categories, rather than the tiered general/special structure used for new units.
Only if your project cost is above ₹10 lakh (manufacturing) or ₹5 lakh (services). Below that, the requirement is relaxed.
It's treated as margin money and adjusted against your loan according to PMEGP scheme conditions, following the required verification and lock-in process.
No. The bank's appraisal considers the project report along with its own credit norms, applicant profile and other standard lending factors.
