MSME restructuring is a key policy by RBI to help businesses sustain financial crises and avoid NPAs. Understanding which loans qualify for restructuring is the first step toward efficient financial management. Many businesses struggle due to lack of knowledge about loan restructuring criteria. By keeping a check on your account status, you can prevent your loan from slipping into an ineligible category.

- Covers loans with exposure up to ₹25 crore (later revised to ₹50 crore).
- Involves multiple banks & consortium lending arrangements.
- Resolution Committee includes regional/zonal heads, MSME experts, and state representatives.
This framework ensures that MSMEs receive structured support during financial difficulties. The resolution committee plays a key role in evaluating the best way to revive struggling businesses.
