Under Atmanirbhar Bharat Yojana, the government banks of the country are issuing Kisan Credit cards. If you are a member of PM kisan then you can apply for Kisan Credit Card. But to get it, it is necessary to apply for PM Kisan membership by June 30. On this card, cheap loan is available for the work related to agriculture.
Farmers are given loans up to Rs 3 lakh from KCC. The interest on the loan is 9 percent, but the government gives 2% subsidy on KCC. With this, the interest on the loan received by the farmer becomes 7 percent. If farmers repay the loan ahead of time, then they get a rebate of up to 3 percent on interest, that is, the total interest remains only 4 percent.
Loan Par Penalty
However, if the loan repayment is not done till the due date, then after that, more interest has to be paid. Such a rule has been made by the government. By the way, the last date for loan repayment is 31 March of FY. But due to Covid, the government has extended it to 30 June 2021.
