Starting a driving school is a profitable venture in India, especially in growing cities like Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. With a project size of ₹5 Lakh, you can set up a well-equipped driving school with 1-2 training vehicles, office setup, and licensing costs. This project report is tailored for a ₹4.5 Lakh term loan under MUDRA Tarun or PMEGP, with a promoter margin of ₹50,000. The report includes CMA data, DSCR calculations (typically 1.5+), and 5-year financial projections to convince banks. It covers eligibility, subsidy options (PMEGP offers 15-35% capital subsidy), and step-by-step loan process. Whether you're an entrepreneur in Lucknow or a CA preparing documents, this guide ensures a bank-ready application with realistic EMI of ₹7,705/month at 11% over 7 years.
Any Indian citizen aged 18+ with at least 8th pass education can apply. Driving school falls under NIC 85530. For ₹5 Lakh, MUDRA Tarun (loan up to ₹10 Lakh) is ideal — no collateral required under CGTMSE cover. PMEGP offers 15% subsidy (₹75,000) for general category and 35% for special categories, but requires a project report and margin money. Stand-Up India is not applicable (requires SC/ST/woman entrepreneur for greenfield). Ensure you have a valid driving license (at least 2 years old) and a commercial vehicle permit if using a dedicated training car. Banks like SBI, Bank of Baroda, and HDFC offer these loans with minimal paperwork.
