PMEGP Scheme

The Prime Minister Employment Generation Programme ( PMEGP) scheme is implemented by the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) functioning as the nodal agency at the national level. At the state level, the scheme is implemented through State KVIC Directorates, State Khadi and Village Industries Boards (KVIBs), District Industries Centres (DICs), and banks.

The maximum cost of the project/unit admissible in the manufacturing sector is ₹ 25 lakhs and in the business/service sector, it is ₹ 10 lakhs. Any individual, above 18 years of age can apply for the scheme. The individual should have at least a VIII standard pass for projects costing above Rs.10 lakh in the manufacturing sector and above Rs. 5 lakh in the business/service sector.

Objectives of PMEGP Schemes

The PMEGP project operates with the following four objectives.

• Set up micro-enterprises and self-employment projects in both rural and urban areas, thereby creating more employment opportunities.
• To provide opportunities for ethnic craftsmen or artisans and unemployed youth in order to create self-employment avenues.
• Provide sustainable employment, especially for ethnic artisans to prevent rural youth from moving to urban areas searching for work, and to ensure employees throughout the year for seasonally employed people.
• Increase the growth rate of employment in urban and rural areas by increasing individual earning capacity.
