The correct answer is: d) All of the above

The government supports MSMEs through a variety of schemes, including:

  • Prime Minister’s Employment Generation Programme (PMEGP): This scheme provides financial assistance to entrepreneurs for setting up new micro and small enterprises.
  • Stand-Up India: This scheme provides financial assistance and handholding support to entrepreneurs from SC/ST, OBC, women, and differently-abled categories for setting up new micro and small enterprises.
  • MUDRA loans: These are loans provided by banks and other financial institutions to micro and small enterprises. They are characterized by low interest rates, easy repayment terms, and collateral-free loans.

These schemes are designed to promote entrepreneurship, create jobs, and boost economic growth. They have been successful in providing financial assistance to a large number of MSMEs and helping them to grow and expand their businesses.

In addition to these schemes, the government also provides a number of other support measures to MSMEs, such as:

  • Tax benefits
  • Subsidy on raw materials
  • Training and development programs
  • Market access assistance
  • Technology support

These measures have helped to improve the competitiveness of MSMEs and make them more resilient to economic shocks.
