Startup Loan 2083 Shortlist Is Out: Did Your Startup Make It?

Big news! The Industrial Enterprise Development Institute (IEDI) has published the shortlist for their startup loan program, and if you're on it, you're one step closer to securing up to 20 Lakhs at just 3% interest.

In terms of procedure, this year IEDI switched things up a bit. Instead of handling the first round of evaluations themselves, they passed that responsibility to Enterprise Development Facilitators (EDFs) operating under each provincial government. Thanks to their reports, 1,301 startups made the cut out of 7,803 applications that initially qualified. Pretty competitive!

Now, what do you need to do if you're shortlisted?

It's simple. IEDI needs you to fill out an information form and send it to them via WhatsApp (+977 9712006717). We've added a link to the form below. Just make sure you do it before 5 PM on Baisakh 23, 2083, because late submissions get automatically discarded. No exceptions, so don't sleep on it!

Click here for the full shortlist and the official notice.

Also, here's the link to the information form provided by IEDI
