A quiet courtyard of modest workshop units with plain metal shutters, a leafy tree, a concrete bench and a wooden handcart; a single distant figure walks along the lane.

About this guide

इस साइट के बारे में

standupindia.in.net is a small independent information site about the Stand-Up India scheme. It explains who can borrow, what the loan terms are, how the credit guarantee works, how to apply through official channels, which documents to prepare, where to get handholding support, how to raise a complaint, and how Stand-Up India compares with Mudra and PMEGP. It is written for women, SC and ST entrepreneurs planning their first business, and for the families and advisers who help them.

Not affiliated

This site is unofficial. It is not affiliated with the Government of India, the Ministry of Finance or its Department of Financial Services, SIDBI, NABARD, the National Credit Guarantee Trustee Company, the Reserve Bank of India, JanSamarth, the standupmitra.in portal, or any bank. It does not use government emblems or official logos, and it is not an official service. The same notice appears in the top bar and footer of every page and on the disclaimer.

How we date facts

Scheme rules, loan terms, figures and contact details on this site come from official sources. These include the Department of Financial Services scheme page, the Stand-Up India portal run by SIDBI, Press Information Bureau releases (including the Cabinet decision of 11 November 2026), the Union Budget 2025-26 speech, and the Reserve Bank of India’s complaint scheme. Each content page shows the date it was last updated and links to its official sources. If an official page and this site ever differ, follow the official page.

What we do not collect

This site does not take applications, logins or payments. It does not ask for Aadhaar, PAN, caste certificate numbers, bank account details, phone numbers, OTPs or passwords. The eligibility checker and the margin-money calculator run in your browser on the answers you type, and do not look up any official record or application status. Every apply, register, login and complaint action is a link to an official portal or a bank.

Corrections

If you think a fact on this site is out of date or wrong, compare it with the official source linked on that page and follow the official page. We update a page and its date when the official record changes.
