By leveraging digital-first lending solutions, the initiative supports the state’s broader vision of inclusive and innovation-driven economic development. One of the key elements of the collaboration is the emphasis on empowering women entrepreneurs through Aarohi, a women-focused initiative by Godrej Capital. This approach aims to strengthen the MSME ecosystem by offering financial support tailored to the unique challenges faced by women-led enterprises.

Telangana, recognized as one of India’s fastest-growing states, has consistently demonstrated its commitment to MSME growth. The recently launched MSME Policy 2024 highlights critical focus areas such as improved credit access, digital adoption, and enhanced infrastructure. The collaboration with Godrej Capital aligns closely with these policy objectives, reinforcing the state’s intent to drive entrepreneurship and economic growth, particularly in emerging business hubs.

Through its subsidiaries, Godrej Capital offers a wide range of financial products to address the diverse needs of MSMEs and individual borrowers. These include Loan Against Property, Udyog Loan Against Property tailored for smaller ticket sizes, and unsecured Business Loans. The partnership is expected to expedite loan disbursal through tech-enabled processes and quick approvals, ultimately enabling MSMEs to scale operations efficiently.

This MoU represents a significant step in bridging the credit gap in Telangana and is poised to create new opportunities for MSMEs, especially women-led businesses, by fostering a supportive, digitally driven lending environment.
