SHGs is an initiative of Micro Credit and Innovations Department of NABARD.

  • Integrating SHG members with the national Financial Inclusion agenda;
  • Improving the quality of interface between SHG members and Banks for efficient and hassle free delivery of banking services by using the available technology;
  • Facilitate convergence of delivery system with SHGs using Aadhaar linked identity.

  • Reports generated in the formats as required by stakeholders like bankers
  • Inbuilt automatic grading of SHGs based on NABARD/IBA(for NRLM) norms
