What it’s for
Local guide
Lucknow’s business life mixes trade in markets such as Aminabad, Chowk and Hazratganj with services for government offices, hospitals and colleges, and with crafts: chikankari and zari-zardozi are the district’s products under Uttar Pradesh’s One District One Product (ODOP) scheme. Manufacturing sits in areas such as Amausi, Talkatora and Chinhat.
Craft businesses often borrow for fabric and thread before the wedding and festive seasons, and to pay artisans while orders are being made; traders need stock and working capital. Units that make the district’s ODOP products may also get the state’s ODOP margin money support on a bank loan, applied for through the District Industries Centre. Keep your GST returns, bank statements and Udyam registration ready.
Lenders decide PIN code by PIN code which areas they serve, so share your business PIN code to see who can lend to you.
Eligibility
Each lender sets its own criteria. Keep these handy; you won’t need to upload them on Firstfund.
Good to know
For MSME term loans, the lender must give you a Key Fact Statement with the APR, every fee and the repayment schedule before you sign. A fee that isn’t in it can’t be charged without your consent.
For floating-rate business loans to individuals and micro and small enterprises, sanctioned or renewed from 1 January 2026, banks and larger NBFCs can’t charge a prepayment fee. Small finance banks, regional rural banks, some co-operative banks and mid-sized NBFCs can’t charge one on such loans up to ₹50 lakh.
Firstfund doesn’t charge you to apply. A real lender pays the loan into your business’s bank account, deducts any processing fee shown in the KFS, and never asks for money upfront.
Based on Reserve Bank of India directions on Key Facts Statements (2024), pre-payment charges (2025) and digital lending (2025). Your lender’s KFS and loan agreement have the final terms.
Questions
Lenders lend where they operate, so where your business is registered and runs decides which lenders can serve you. Share your business PIN code and our team will check.
Many lenders ask for it, but not all. Some accept other business proof, such as Udyam registration or a shop licence, especially for smaller amounts.
Not always. Many lenders offer unsecured business loans. Larger amounts or longer tenures may need security, such as property or the equipment you buy.
Chikankari is one of Lucknow’s ODOP products, so a bank loan for your unit may qualify for the state’s ODOP margin money support. You apply for it through the District Industries Centre; the lender sets the loan terms.
Lenders judge your business from bank statements, GST returns and ITR. Paying artisans and taking payments through your bank account makes your turnover visible and strengthens your application.
No. Sharing your details with Firstfund is free. Lenders may charge a processing fee, which they must show in the Key Fact Statement.
