The SME policies formulated by the Delhi Government have been lauded by all industrialists as it provides them with great freedom to function without the fear of red-tapism, especially when it comes to claiming the subsidy from the Governments. In the olden days, there were no such business-friendly policies in Delhi. Every budding industrialist had a tough time greasing the palms of people to get simple facilities like electricity and water connections. This Government has changed everything with their business-friendly policies. Now availing loans as well as subsidies has become easy for the industrialists.
MSME Loan Schemes for the betterment of the industry
