Seeking to boost the COVID-hit economy, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on her first press conference of the economic package announced Rs 3-lakh crore collateral-free automatic loan for businesses, including MSMEs.
This will benefit 45 lakh small businesses, she said, detailing parts of the Rs 20-lakh crore economic stimulus.
“Today’s announcements by FM @nsitharaman will go a long way in addressing issues faced by businesses, especially MSMEs,” Modi said.
The announcements by the finance minister came a day after Prime Minister Modi introduced massive new financial incentives on top of the previously announced packages for a combined stimulus of Rs 20 lakh crore.
