Banks Need to Disburse ₹1 Trillion Worth of Loans to Meet Mudra Target
As per the government data, the banks need to ramp up lending under the Mudra scheme to meet the target of ₹3 trillion worth of loans in FY19. Even as there is less than one month left for the financial year to be over, the banks have lent only ₹2 trillion worth of loans. 

The Micro Units Development and Refinance Agency Ltd (Mudra) scheme was launched in April 2015 to provide small loans up to ₹10 lakhs to the SMEs.
