India being a land of increasing opportunities and
resources is now on the path of promoting entrepreneurship. The
Government is constantly encouraging the citizens to change their
approach from being job seekers to job givers. Major challenge on
this arena lies in the availability of capital. In order to

'StandUp India') have been introduced. The Government is
also encouraging more entities to enter into the domain of
financing so as to increase the business productivity in the
country.
