FAQ
CGTMSE Loan - common questions
It's a government-backed credit guarantee scheme that lets eligible micro and small enterprises borrow without pledging collateral, because the guarantee fund covers part of the lender's risk.
No. We are an advisor. Approval is done by the participating lender under the scheme's rules - we help you check eligibility, prepare documents, and connect with the right lender.
That's the point of the scheme - eligible credit is extended without the collateral or third-party guarantee a lender would normally require, because the guarantee cover stands behind it instead.
Yes. A guarantee fee applies under the scheme, in addition to the lender's own interest and charges. Your advisor factors this into the total cost so you can compare it fairly against a conventional secured loan.
Member lending institutions registered with the Trust - a range of banks and NBFCs. We help you identify participating lenders whose criteria match your business profile.
Eligibility depends on your enterprise type, registration, and the scheme's prevailing limits. Your advisor will assess whether your business qualifies.
