Overview

Over the last six decades, the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) sector has emerged as a highly vibrant and competitive sector of the Indian economy. MSMEs not only play a crucial role in providing significant employment opportunities at comparatively lower capital costs than large industries but also in helping to industrialize rural and backward regions, thus eliminating regional imbalances and ensuring that national income and wealth are spread more equitably.

As per the current amended definition of the MSME sectors, the distinction between the manufacturing and services enterprises has been eliminated by making investment amounts and annual turnover identical for enterprises engaged in both sectors. The amended following types of enterprises are recognized as under:

  • Micro Enterprises – Enterprises having an investment of less than Onecrore and turnover less than Five crores, for both the manufacturing and service sector.
  • Small Enterprises – Enterprises having investment not exceeding Ten crores and turnover not exceeding Fifty crores, for both the manufacturing and service sector.
  • Medium Enterprises – Enterprises having investment not exceeding Fifty crores and turnover not exceeding Two Hundred and Fifty crores, for both manufacturing and service sector.
