Stand - UPS Growth in India Opportunity and Challenges

The Government of India launched the StandUp India scheme on April 5, 2016, as part of The Stand-Up India Scheme's objective is to promote entrepreneurship among women or scheduled caste and scheduled tribes by facilitating bank loans. The scheme is similar to, but different from, Start-up India, as both are enablers and beneficiaries of other key government schemes such as Make in India, Industrial Corridor, Dedicated Freight Corridor, Sagarmala, Bharatmala, Digital India, Bharat Net and UMAN.
