Actions will be taken against banks, if loans to MSMEs are delayed: MoS Finance

Kolkata, Jun 6 (KNN) The Union government has assured Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) of corrective action, if banks delay or create hurdles in disbursing Rs 3,00,000-crore loans allocated to them as relief package.

If you (MSMEs) are facing any such delay, please write to us and corrective actions will be taken and the loan will be disbursed,” said Union Minister of State for Finance and Corporate Affairs, Anurag Thakur during a webinar organised by the Merchants Chamber of Committee and Industry.

He pointed out that it was brought to the Ministry’s notice that a few bank officials at the branch level were creating problems in loan disbursals.

Sitharaman further said that the government will create a Fund of Fund to infuse Rs 50,000 crore as equity for MSMEs which are viable businesses and need hand holding.

She also asserted that in order to provide stressed MSMEs with equity support; government will facilitate the provision of Rs. 20,000 crores as subordinate debt.
