UDYOGINI SCHEME
Under the Udyogini Scheme, women between the ages of 18 and 45 are eligible for loans of up to Rs. 1 lakh. These loans are available to people who work in the business, agricultural, retail, and small company sectors. Only a woman entrepreneur can apply for a loan through the Udyogini plan if her family’s annual income is under Rs. 45,000. For loans up to Rs. 10,000 given to widowed, impoverished, or crippled women who fall under the SC and ST categories, a 30% subsidy is also offered.
