you are aware, the Reserve Bank of India has, from time to time, issued a number

instructions at one place, a Master Circular incorporating the existing guidelines/instructions/directives
on the subject has been prepared and is appended. This Master Circular consolidates
the instructions issued by the RBI up to June 30, 2007, which are listed in the
Appendix, to the extent they deal with the MSME sector lending
