Without a doubt, the Covid-19 pandemic has been one of the most significant phenomena that we have witnessed in our lifetime. The pandemic halted the social and economic life of people throughout the world. In addition to this, Micro-small-and-medium enterprises (MSMEs), which form the backbone of India's economic structure, have been severely impacted by this pandemic. The cash cycles of small businesses have been completely disrupted. Hence, the SME loan Schemes act has come as a breather for MSMEs.
The MSMEs' situation is of great concern because they are an integral part of domestic and global value chains. Even before the pandemic, the industry struggled with issues like late payments, over-dependence on a small number of consumers, and a lack of skilled workforce. The pandemic has further disrupted the MSME segment’s operations.
These are some obstacles that MSMEs are currently facing:
Fintechs help MSMEs cope with these struggles by offering various SME loan schemes and products. So if your business is struggling with any of these issues, you can avail of a business loan and get back on track.

"We started our business with a single lathe machine. Earlier, we got help from family and friends. However, to really develop our business, we needed loans to buy CNC machinery. Within a year, we moved from 2 to 8 employees and our turnover increased by 60%. Thanks for the support from Kinara Capital.
Small business requirements vary significantly from those of large corporations. Money may be required by a small business to meet a temporary cash crunch, pay wages, fulfil a large order, or even do something innovative. Therefore, taking a fast collateral-free business loan from a fintech would be an ideal choice. The process of availing of SME loan schemes and products is quick and flexible. The document requirements are minimal, and no property collateral is needed.
So, get your business back on track and take it to new heights by applying for a loan from Kinara Capital.
