ESSENTIAL - MSME (Udyam Registration)

Nurturing dreams, fueling economy

The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 was enacted which mainly aimed in the promotion, enhancement of competitiveness and development of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises. In a developing country like India, MSME’s are the backbone of the economy which promotes equitable development. These industries are also known as Small-Scale Industries or SSI’s.

 

What are Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise?

Earlier, the criteria for manufacturing units and service units were different. Now those distinctions between Manufacturing and Service MSMEs are being removed. They will all be defined similarly.

The Enterprises which are engaged in the manufacture or production, processing or preservation of goods or the enterprises which are engaged in providing or rendering of services, up to a specified limit, are known as Micro or Small or Medium Enterprises, as per their respective limits as given below.

It means only those enterprises are considered eligible for Udyam Registration which are either in manufacturing or production or processing or preservation of goods or in providing or rendering of services. In other words, the enterprises which are engaging only in trading i.e. buying, selling importing, exporting of Goods are not eligible for applying for Udyam Registration.
