Benefits of CGTMSE?

No need for collateral security:

Providing collateral can be difficult for small businesses, as most of them have limited or no assets. To help them, loans availed under the CGTMSE Scheme from Axis Bank are collateral-free. Customers also have an option to apply for Hybrid facilities for a higher loan amount.

Nominal guarantee fee:

Loans taken under the CGTMSE Scheme charge an annual guarantee fee (AGF). A nominal fee is applicable on AGF for small ticket loans of up to ₹10 Lakhs.. The highest AGF is for loans between ₹2-5 crores, charged at 1.35% of the loan amount, which may vary from time to time.

Easy Access to Credit:

You can easily reach out to your nearest Axis Bank branch or website. The CGTMSE Scheme guidelines and instructions are easy for MSE customers to understand, followed by a hassle-free loan application process.
