Punjab & Sind Bank, a state-owned financial institution, is set to roll out an instant loan scheme for the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector later this month. The initiative will allow MSME borrowers to avail loans of up to ₹25 lakh through a fully digital platform, marking a significant step in the bank’s digital transformation agenda.
The bank has already introduced digital home and vehicle loan schemes under the PSB e-Apna Ghar and PSB e-Apna Vahan initiatives, which provide in-principle approval for loan applications within 15 minutes. These schemes are powered by a Straight Through Process (STP) based on a pre-defined Business Rule Engine (BRE), ensuring quick, efficient, and automated processing without manual intervention.
In addition to the MSME scheme, Punjab & Sind Bank plans to launch digital solutions for the renewal and sanctioning of Kisan Credit Cards (KCC) next month. Farmers will be able to access collateral-free loans of up to ₹2 lakh or renew their KCC accounts instantly through a simple online process.
The bank is also working on providing collateral-free loans of up to ₹50,000 under the Pradhan Mantri MUDRA Yojana (PMMY) through its digital platform.
