More than 6 crore MSMEs have a crucial role to play in building a stronger and self-reliant India. These small economic engines have a huge impact on the country’s GDP– making a contribution of around 30 percent. They contribute to almost half of exports from the country. Additionally, more than 11 crore people are employed in the MSME sector. To address policy issues affecting MSMEs as well as the coverage and investment ceiling of the sector, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act was notified in 2006. This Act seeks to facilitate the development of these enterprises and also enhances their competitiveness through various schemes, privileges & other benefits from Government of India. In 2015, Government introduced Udyog Aadhaar Registration under the campaign of ‘Make in India’ to make the process of MSME registration easy by filling one page form. Although the UAM brought MSMEs under the formal and organized side of their existence, due to the provision of self-certification, it was prone to multiple registrations by a single entity. MSME INSIDER March 2021 1 The much-expected change in the definition of MSME was brought to reality by the Government under the “Atmanirbhar Bharat Package” to make MSME sector globally competitive. Earlier, the MSMEs were defined on the basis of investments put in, now the revised definitions also include turnover of the enterprise. Also, the revised definition considers both Manufacturing & Service enterprises under common metric. The new definition paves way for strengthening and growth of MSMEs. Particularly, the provision of excluding the exports from counting of overall turnover encourages the MSMEs to export more and more without fearing to lose the benefits of a MSME unit. With a view to simplifying the registration process and promote ease of doing business, the UDYAM Registration was launched on 1st July 2020, which triggered the reclassification for all MSMEs existing on 30th June 2020. The registration process is free of cost, paperless, online and aimed at reducing transaction time, cost for entrepreneurs and promotes Ease of Doing Business. The entrepreneur friendly portal is integrated with Income Tax and GST Networks in the backend to fetch out the relevant information needed for registration. Ministry of MSME has also commenced API integration of Udyam Registration portal with GeM to allow participation in Government procurement easily. Udyam registration helps in getting government tenders, easy access to credit in lower interest rates, various tax rebates available, becomes easy to get licenses, approvals, and registrations irrespective of the field of business, etc. To sum up, the new ray of hope for MSME’s through the Udyam Registration process brings in multifold benefits & privileges empowering the sector to greater progress thereby in better nation building too. The Ministry is optimistic that this process will be extremely simple, seamless entrepreneur friendly. It will set an example in ease of doing business, not only in India but internationally. It will reduce transaction time and costs. Entrepreneurs and Enterprises can focus on their real work and become globally competitive. I would like to congratulate the Udyam registration team for achieving incredible success by supporting the registration of over 30 lakh MSMEs in less than a year’s time. Hope we keep our best foot forward and help to bring more MSMEs under Udyam registration soon.

MSME INSIDER March 2021 7 Women empowerment – Food for thought Ms. Umadevi Cherukupally She has a post-graduate degree in economics. The urge to empower other women by first being empowered herself gave her the idea to become an entrepreneur. Meet Ms. Umadevi Cherukupally, Proprietor of MyHome Foods, Telangana. The hectic lives of working women Made her think about manufacturing and supplying instant, ready-to-use spices and mixes commonly used in Indian kitchens. She then underwent a course on Online Marketing offered by the local MSME Institute and learnt about the PMEGP scheme of financial assistance. She now manufactures and supplies hygienically made and packed spices and mixes. Ask her how she feels, and she emphatically says “Entrepreneurship will empower both the Individual and our country”. Truly inspiring, isn’t it? Designer par excellence Ms. Sangi Shreya, Patna For Ms. Sangi Shreya, designing garments and embellishing them was her first passion. She used to design outfits for herself and her friends. This passion led her to become an entrepreneur by opening her own Fashion boutique – Shreya Creations – in Patna. She read about the PMEGP scheme in a newspaper advertisement and lost no time in applying for financial assistance. A loan under this scheme, through Punjab National Bank helped her realize her dream. Today, Ms Sangi Shreya is a very busy woman, with an annual turnover of Rs. 100 lakhs! According to Ms Shreya, delivering quality products is very important for a business to grow and sustain. And this keeps her going!!
