This scheme will support the promoters of the operational MSMEs which are financially stressed under banking rules.
The guarantee cover worth Rs 20,000 crore will be provided to the promoters who can take debt from the banks to further invest in their stressed MSMEs as equity, hence maintaining liquidity and debt-equity ratio.
90% guarantee coverage for this sub-debt will be given under the Scheme and 10% would come from the concerned promoters.
Gadkari expressed thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for further extending support to the MSME sector.
