Punjab Rozgar Scheme
Punjab Rozgar Scheme
Small & Medium Enterprises are the back bone of a country’s economy, and their growth is one of the key factors of economic uplift. Despite their importance, these businesses lack access to financing options.
In order to give boost to this neglected sector, Government of Punjab has been working on various uplift initiatives which have been merged as a single scheme post-COVID. “Punjab Rozgar Scheme”, launched by Punjab Small Industries Corporation (PSIC) in collaboration with The Bank of Punjab aims to provide subsidized small business loans in the range of Rs. 100,000/- to Rs. 10,000,000/-
