Only those who have availed and repaid the loans under the<\/span> ‘<\/span>Tarun<\/span>‘ <\/span>category are eligible. The increase now stands at Rs. 20 lakh instead of the earlier Rs. 10 lakh. <\/span>This<\/span> has <\/span>been done<\/span> with the interest of small business owners who have followed the repayment schedules.<\/span><\/p>\n
