+<code>
+. Status of my application no. _____ dated _____ as on date.
+. Name + designation of dealing officer assigned to my file.
+. Reasons for delay beyond the statutory timeline.
+. Copy of any noting / movement of my file in the past 30 days.

+**Auto-fill the PIO + your case:** [[:citizen-rti-playbook|Open the RTI Drafter →]]
+===== Frequently asked questions =====
+==== Mudra loan denied — multiple banks. Why? ====
+Common: poor business plan, low credit score, no collateral assets even for collateral-free. SLBC coordinator helps.
+==== Udyam vs Udyog Aadhaar — same? ====
+Udyam = updated name (since July 2020). Udyog Aadhaar holders auto-migrated.
+==== %%GeM%% — eligible without Udyam? ====
+Yes for any seller. But MSME benefits (25% reserve) need Udyam.
+==== Stand-Up India — only for women/SC/ST? ====
+Yes — for them + greenfield enterprise. General entrepreneurs use Mudra / PMEGP.
+==== Scheme delayed > 60 days. Fix? ====
+File RTI to scheme nodal + MSME Champions. CPGRAMS parallel.
