Micro loan definition expanded under CGFMU, extending guarantee coverage to PMMY bands and PMJDY overdraft facilities.
Amendments expand CGFMU coverage by redefining Micro Loan to align with MUDRA categories and explicitly include PMJDY overdraft facilities, and by broadening the definition of Eligible borrower to cover micro units, JLG members and qualifying Self Help Groups within the specified PMMY loan limit; guarantee cover is available where Member Lending Institutions apply per Fund procedures, with the Fund able to publish lists of covered or excluded institutions or schemes.

Adjudication process for geographical indications establishes electronic complaint, inquiry, and appeal procedures with timeframes and penalties.
The rules provide an electronic procedure for complaints, inquiries and appeals under the Geographical Indications Act: any person may file an electronic complaint; the adjudicating officer must issue an electronic show cause notice specifying the alleged contravention, allow a minimum response period, require appearance if inquiry is warranted, permit counter statements and evidence in prescribed forms, compel witness attendance, and may proceed in absence of a respondent. Orders must be reasoned, dated and signed, supplied free to parties, and proceedings completed ordinarily within three months; appeals may be filed electronically and disposed of with a reasoned order.
