FAQ
Common questions
Does CGTMSE guarantee mean automatic approval?+
No. CGTMSE is a credit guarantee to the lender — it covers default risk up to 85%, but the lender still has to underwrite and sanction the loan on its own credit policy. Many files lose CGTMSE because the bank's credit team rejects them, not CGTMSE.
What's the maximum loan under CGTMSE?+
Up to ₹5 crore per borrower as composite credit (term loan + working capital). The Annual Guarantee Fee (AGF) ranges from 0.37% to 1.35% depending on the slab and is paid by the lender (recovered from borrower).
Which sectors are excluded from CGTMSE?+
Educational/training institutions, self-help groups, agriculture and allied activities, and retail trade are excluded. Manufacturing and most services are eligible. We map your activity code before applying.
