Interested applicants may submit PMEGP loan applications to the implementing agencies like DIC/KVIB under PMEGP scheme at www.kviconline.gov.in . However, the applicant from remote areas and Islands where internet connectivity is weak can submit filled in hard copy of the applications to the agencies for upload the same in website.
