Centre’s MSME greening scheme sees just 3.7% disbursal
MSMEs must obtain loans for green operations before receiving government benefits, according to the scheme guidelines. “Many MSEs are already credit-constrained, making them reluctant to borrow additional funds for sustainability upgrades. India’s MSMEs operate largely in industrial clusters such as textiles, ceramics, engineering, leather, and foundries, but the scheme is structured around individual enterprise financing rather than cluster-level green upgrades, which would be far more effective,” said Kumar.
