Now you will be able to get a loan in
PM Svanidhi Scheme more easily. Because the Government of India plans to
further expand the Prime Minister Street Vendor Self-Reliant Fund Scheme. For
this, the central government is now preparing to link the scheme with banks,
private banks can also join this scheme. Housing and Urban Affairs officials
have been directed to work on the vision of PM Narendra Modi's plan. Its
purpose is that the PM Svanidhi portal will be linked with banks to speed up
the sanction and transfer of loans through the scheme.
In this regard, the central ministry
is planning to consult with Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) banks and private
banks by the end of this month, so that more people can take advantage of the
scheme. For this, the Secretary of the Union Ministry has also started an
Application Programming Interface (API) to coordinate between PM Svanidhi and
State Bank of India (SBI) portal.
This table will make the process of
applying for and getting loans easily very easy between the PM Svanidhi portal
and the e-Mudra portal of the State Bank of India. This will make it easier for
people doing small jobs along the road to get working capital. A statement from
the central ministry said that the ministry will consider similar synergies
with other banks, for which an advisory meeting will be held soon.
The Union Ministry of Housing and
Urban Affairs has implemented the PM Svanidhi scheme from June 1, 2020. Its
purpose is to help people whose livelihoods were affected by the lockdown
imposed to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The scheme aims to benefit
about 5 million people in urban and rural areas. Under PM Svanidhi scheme,
sellers can take a loan of up to Rs 10,000 working capital, which the beneficiary
will have to repay within one year through monthly instalments. As of October
6, 2020, more than 20.50 lakh loan applications have been received under the PM
Svanidhi scheme, out of which more than 7.85 lakh cases have been approved
loans and loan amount has been given in more than 2.40 lakh cases.
