Q1Which of the following statements about the employer-focused part of PM-VBRY is incorrect?

A The incentive can be up to ₹3,000 per month for each additional employee.

B Every sector receives the employer incentive for four years.

C Additional employment must be sustained for at least six months.

D Manufacturing receives an extension of the incentive to the third and fourth years.

Explanation

The employer incentive normally runs for two years, not four years for every sector. Only manufacturing receives the special extension to the third and fourth years. The other statements correctly state the ₹3,000 monthly ceiling and six-month sustained-employment condition.

Q2Which ministry is the nodal ministry for PM Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana (PM-VBRY)?

A Ministry of Finance

B Ministry of Labour & Employment

C Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship

D Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises

Explanation

The Ministry of Labour & Employment is the nodal ministry for PM-VBRY. The scheme links incentives to first-time formal workers and additional employment, so its administration rests with the ministry responsible for labour and employment.

Q3What is the maximum incentive available to an eligible first-time employee under the employee-focused part of PM-VBRY?
