Stand Up India is a loan scheme which provides a loan from Rs. 10 Lakh to Rs. 1 Crore to the scheduled caste, scheduled tribe, or a woman from the bank for setting up a new project or business. This scheme is backed up by the Department of Financial Service (DFS), Ministry of Finance, Government of India. It aims at promoting entrepreneurship among women and scheduled caste and tribes.
