Frequently Asked Questions
I am 52 years old and want to open a tailoring shop. Am I eligible?
Yes — CMSY covers ages up to 55 years. A tailoring shop falls under the service sector. You would need to show you are not in regular employment.
Can a woman get both CMSY and another UP women's scheme?
You can access CMSY for a business loan. State women's skill/SHG schemes are separate. However, you cannot combine two government loans for the same business.
The DIC approved my application but the bank rejected the loan. What can I do?
Visit your DIC office with the rejection letter. The DIC can help escalate with the bank, suggest an alternative bank, or issue a fresh referral. Under government schemes, banks are expected to give serious consideration to DIC-recommended applications.
Is there an annual income limit for CMSY applicants?
There is no specific income cap mentioned — the eligibility is based on unemployment/self-employment status. The scheme is not exclusively for BPL families.
