What is the purpose of Mudra Yojana (PMMY)?
The Central Government’s Mudra Yojana (PMMY) has two objectives. First, easy loan for self-employment. Second, to create employment through small enterprises.
If you are also facing the problem of capital to start your business, then you can make your dream come true with the PMMY of the Central Government.
The thinking of the government is that on getting easy loans, people will be motivated for self-employment on a large scale. This will also create a large number of employment opportunities.
Before the Mudra Yojana (PMMY), a lot of formalities had to be completed for small enterprises to take a loan from the bank. A guarantee had to be given to take the loan. Because of this many people wanted to start an enterprise, but were hesitant to take a loan from the bank.
