Common Questions About PMEGP Advisory

Can an existing business apply for PMEGP?

PMEGP is for new micro enterprises. Units already availing central/state capital subsidy for the same activity are generally not eligible, so we verify before you apply.

How long does PMEGP disbursement take?

After bank sanction and beneficiary contribution, margin money release follows KVIC/DIC and bank procedures, often several months; timelines vary by district and bank.
