MSME loan approval rates muted despite 2-fold increase in funding: Report -Anshika Kayastha

MSMEs face a credit gap of 25 lakh crore as formal lenders meet less than 15 per cent of the sector’s requirements

Quarterly MSME loan disbursements have increased over two-fold in the last two years, but the approval rate for medium-risk MSMEs has seen no improvement — a reflection of the lender’s low risk appetite, according to venture capital firm BLinC Invest.

The increase in disbursements has been made possible by increased credit penetration and not due to additional risks taken by financial institutions. This is reflected in the approval rate for private banks being around 30-35 per cent over the last year, and for PSU banks and NBFCs actually falling over the last 2 years.

Pvt banks lead

As such, private banks have been at the forefront of lending to MSMEs with an average loan ticket size of 44.2 lakh as of Q4FY22. They were followed by NBFCs with an average loan ticket of 21.1 lakh and PSU banks of 17.7 lakh.
