In the following article, we will observe some famous SIDBI schemes like- SME IT loans, vendor development, marketing assistance, international finance, for women entrepreneurs, and risk capitals as well.

The loan is mainly offered to MSEs so that they can do proper marketing for their products. Also, the ratio of debt-equity is normally not more than 2:1.
In order to help the SMEs set up, a good IT sector in their business, SIDBI, and well-known IT Company Intel have come together and launched an extremely successful venture.
