Bank Finance Process - PMEGP:
1. The Bank will sanction 90% of the project cost in case of General Category of
beneficiary/institution and 95% in case of special category of the beneficiary/institution,
and disburse full amount suitably for setting up of the project.
2. Bank will finance Capital Expenditure in the form of Term Loan and Working
Capital in the form of cash credit. Project can also be financed by the Bank in the form
of Composite Loan consisting of Capital Expenditure and Working Capital.
3. Maximum project cost under PMEGP is Rs. 25 lakh, which include Term loan for
Capital Expenditure and Working Capital. For manufacturing units, working capital
component should not be more than 40% of the project cost and for units under
service/trading sector, the working capital shall not be more than 60% of the project cost. However, for manufacturing units, the project cost may include maximum capital
expenditure upto Rs.25 lakh. In such cases, the working capital over and above Rs.25
lakh will not be covered under subsidy. This is in line with the definition of Micro units
under MSMEs Development Act, 2006. A Bill for amending the definition of MSMEs is
before the Parliament. The guidelines of PMEGP will be changed in accordance with
the amended provisions in the definition of MSMEs in the Act as and when approved by
the Parliament.
4. Though Banks will claim Margin Money (subsidy) on the basis of projections of
Capital Expenditure in the project report and sanction thereof, Margin Money (subsidy)
on the actual availment of Capital Expenditure only will be retained and excess, if any,
will be refunded to KVIC, immediately after the project is ready for commencement of
production.
5. Working Capital component should be utilized in such a way that at one point of
stage it touches 100% limit of Cash Credit within three years of lock in period of Margin
Money and not less than 75% utilization of the sanctioned limit. If it does not touch aforesaid limit, proportionate amount of the Margin Money (subsidy) is to be recovered by the Bank/Financial Institution and refunded to the KVIC at the end of the third year.
