Dear Sir / Madam,
Credit Guarantee Scheme Changes in Guarantee fee structure
As you may be aware the Credit Guarantee Scheme of CGTSI is in operation since
August 2000. In order to make the Scheme more attractive and convenient for its Member

the Scheme for select category of eligible borrowers as follows in consonance with the
measures pertaining to CGTSI in the "Policy Package for stepping up credit to Small and
Medium Enterprises" as announced by the Hon'ble Finance Minister, Government of India, in
the Parliament on August 10, 2005:

Existing Provision:
"A one time guarantee fee at specified rate (currently 2.5 per cent) of the credit
facility sanctioned, (comprising term loan and / or working capital facility) shall be paid
upfront to the Trust by the eligible institution availing of the guarantee within 30 days from the
date of first disbursement of credit facility."
Modified Provision:

been

sanctioned, (comprising term loan and / or working capital facility) shall be paid upfront to the
Trust by the eligible institution availing of the guarantee within 30 days from the date of first
disbursement of credit facility, with the proviso, however, that such Guarantee Fee will be at a
rate of 1.5% instead with regard to the following category of borrowers in respect of credit
facility sanctioned on or after October 01, 2005 and covered under the Scheme :
