Abstract

This study analyses the role of the caste of firms in getting finance or credit from different financial sources in Jharkhand. We find that establishments belonging to Scheduled Tribe (ST) and Scheduled Caste (SC) owners have a lower probability of getting credit from different financial sources like the government, financial institutions, non-financial institutions, or money lenders.
