Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank has recently introduced new loan schemes with an attractive interest rate of 12.12%. These schemes offer customers the opportunity to access various types of loans, including home loans, MSME loans (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises), and EV loans (Electric Vehicle loans), all at a reduced interest rate compared to standard loan offerings.
Under the home loan scheme, eligible borrowers can receive loans up to 60% of the collateral’s valuation. The repayment period for these home loans can extend up to 30 years, providing customers with a long-term financing option for their residential property needs. However, it is essential to note that the loan amount must not exceed Rs. 1.50 crore to qualify for this particular loan scheme.
For those seeking financial support for their MSME ventures, the bank is offering loans equivalent to 80% of the collateral’s valuation. This can be a significant boost for small and medium-sized enterprises looking to expand or invest in their businesses.
As for the EV loan, the bank provides borrowers with the opportunity to access funding up to 80% of the vehicle’s price, making it more affordable for customers interested in purchasing electric vehicles.
To further streamline the loan application process and enhance customer convenience, Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank is ensuring that applicants receive the loan amount promptly. According to their media statement, once applicants submit all the necessary documentation, they can expect to receive the loan amount within three working days.
Overall, these new loan schemes by Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank aim to offer competitive interest rates and faster loan processing to cater to the diverse financial needs of their customers, ranging from homeownership to business expansion and environmentally friendly vehicle purchases.

Microsoft released Windows 11 earlier today, along with updated minimum hardware requirements. Many people have already complained on Twitter that their relatively new hardware, such as Microsoft’s Surface Book 2 (released in 2017) and even newer hardware, isn’t compatible. This is due to the fact that Microsoft now requires the presence of a TPM 2.0 module in the device, as explained below by the Twitter handle @KorokuGaming:
Open Windows Powershell and type get-tpm to see if your device has the compatible TPM; here’s an example from one of our recently built gaming rigs:
In a nutshell, if you are planning to try out Windows 11 then you’ll need the minimum specs below:
1Ghz 64-bit dual-core processor
4GB RAM
64GB storage
9-inch display (1366×768 resolution)
UEFI, Secure Boot
TPM 2.0
DirectX 12 compatible graphics / WDDM 2.x
If you get the above message when running the Windows PC Health Check app, there’s still a way to get Windows 11 next week when it’s released to Insiders. You’ll need to opt into the Dev channel of Windows Insiders within Windows 10, and you’ll get the build automatically when it’s released, minimum specs be damned.
To join Windows Insiders, go to All Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider Program (you may be prompted to enable Optional Diagnostic & Feedback), then click Get started and select the Dev channel if it’s available (you may have to restart Windows in order to switch channels).
The complete process is outlined in this post at the Windows Insider Blog:
All Windows Insiders who have already been installing builds from the Dev Channel on their PCs up through June 24, 2021 will be allowed to continue installing Windows 11 Insider Preview builds even if their PC does not meet the minimum hardware requirements.
People who choose to get Windows 11 Insider builds despite the fact that their device isn’t eligible may experience bugs that will never be fixed, which could lead to them being flagged as having an incompatible device when reporting bugs to Microsoft.
Come here my pretty!
Furthermore, if you run into issues and decide to reinstall Windows by hard-resetting your computer, those devices will be automatically opted out of Windows 11 Insider Preview builds and will not be able to upgrade to Windows 11. These devices will be treated as new PCs, according to Microsoft, and the minimum hardware requirements will be enforced.
Finally, when Windows 11 is made generally available, which means when the final build is released, those PCs will be removed from the flighting program and will have to reinstall Windows 10 from scratch.
