The objective of rural industrialization implies widely dispersed on a Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) with as high an employment potential as is compatible with an efficient technique and the requirement of process of development. The Commercial banks are playing an important role in the development of rural industries in India. Most of the credit-related schemes of the government to uplift the poorer and the under-privileged sections have been implemented through the banking sector. The banking sector's role in deposit mobilisation and extending credit is of much importance. The commercial banks have extended loans at concessional rates to rural industries.
