The Ministry of MSME through NSIC has signed a memorandum of
understanding with Onicra to provide performance and credit rating services to
MSME units. The rating creates awareness about the strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threats, and assists in identifying areas of improvement for
the MSME unit. Under this scheme, the msme unit only pays 25% of the rating fee
to Onicra while the rest 75% is subsidized
