It helps the women to start or engage in self employment project which further allows them to generate income, built wealth and exit from poverty. But the accessibility of credit is the main problem faced by women especially women from the rural areas.

But a significant proportion of the households especially in the rural areas remain outside the coverage of the Indian formal banking system. These credit gap left by the banks in India are filled by the Non Banking Finance Companies. They can play a significant role in supporting and complementing the financial inclusion efforts of the banking sector. In this context Muthoot Mahila Mitra is a micro finance scheme of Muthoot Fin Corp, an NBFC registered under RBI as a Systmatically Important Non Deposit taking NBFC. It plays a significant role in the socio economic development of women through their micro finance schemes.
