What is MSME ?

MSME registration stands for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises registration. It is a government initiative aimed at promoting and supporting small and medium-sized businesses. In India, for instance, businesses can register online through the Udyam Registration portal. The process involves self-declaration of relevant information, and there is no fee for registration. Once registered, the enterprise receives an MSME certificate that grants access to various benefits, including financial incentives, tax benefits, and priority sector lending. MSMEs play a significant role in generating employment and contributing to the economy's growth. However, specific registration procedures and guidelines may vary by country, so it is essential to check the latest information from the government's official sources.

Udyam (MSME) Registration

The Government of India introduced MSME or Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises in agreement with Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act of 2006. These enterprises primarily engaged in the production, manufacturing, processing, or preservation of goods and commodities. Thereafter, a proposal was made to redefine MSMEs by the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (Amendment) Bill, 2018, to classify them as manufacturing or service-providing enterprises, based on their annual turnover. For the implementation of the MSME Development Act, 2006, the registration process for the MSMEs involved filing of two forms. These included Entrepreneurs Memorandum I (EM I) and Entrepreneurs Memorandum II (EM II). Where EM I was for the proposed or upcoming enterprises and discretionary in nature, EM II was required to be filed by the existing enterprises.

In order to promote ease of doing business and simplify the process of MSME registration further, the Ministry of MSME introduced the Udyog Aadhaar registration, now known as Udyam Registration.

 

Udyam Registration is basically an online registration process of the Ministry of MSME, where the MSMEs can register via self-declaration with no additional documents to be submitted for the same.

 

Further, the MSMEs are not required to pay any fees and cannot file more than one Udyam  Registration  Form with the same Aadhar Number

 

Types

An enterprise shall be classified as a micro, small or medium enterprise on the basis of the following criteria, namely: --

 

(i) a micro enterprise, where the investment in plant and machinery or equipment does not exceed one crore rupees and turnover does not exceed five crore rupees;

(ii) a small enterprise, where the investment in plant and machinery or equipment does not exceed ten crore rupees and turnover does not exceed fifty crore rupees; and

(iii) a medium enterprise, where the investment in plant and machinery or equipment does not exceed fifty crore rupees and turnover does not exceed two hundred and fifty crore rupees.

 

Priority Sector Lending:

The Priority Sector Lending (PSL) guidelines are issued by Reserve Bank of India. RBI has issued guidelines on Priority Sector Lending vide its circular no RBI/FIDD/2020 Master Directions FIDD.CO.Plan.BC.5/04.09.01/2020-21 dated September 04, 2020. Accordingly, the categories under priority sector are 

(i) Agriculture 

(ii) Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises 

(iii) Export Credit 

(iv) Education 

(v) Housing 

(vi) Social Infrastructure 

(vii) Renewable Energy 

(viii) Others. 

Therefore, MSME Sector falls under Priority Sector Lending. As per RBI, the definition of MSMEs will be as per Government of India (GoI), Gazette Notification S.O. 2119 (E) dated June 26, 2020 read with circular RBI/2020 FIDD.MSME & NFS.BC.No.3/06.02.31/2020-21 read with FIDD.MSME & NFS. BC. No.4 / 21 dated July 2, 2020, August 21, 2020 respectively on ‘Credit flow to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Sector’ and updated from time to time. Further, such MSMEs should be engaged in the manufacture or production of goods, in any manner, pertaining to any industry specified in the First Schedule to the Industries (Development and Regulation) Act, in providing or rendering of any service or services. 

All bank loans to MSMEs conforming to the RBI guidelines qualify for classification under priority sector lending.

Retailers and Wholesalers can now obtain Udyam Registration

Retailers and Wholesalers have been facing the problem of not being able to register under the MSME Scheme as the same has not been permitted since the time MSME Registration was implemented. When MSME Registration was converted into Udyog Aadhar even then the registration of Retailers & Wholesalers was not permitted by the Ministry of MSME. Even though the NIC code list consisted of activities of Retailers & Wholesalers under the broad category of 45, 46 & 47 still their registration was not permitted and the same was mentioned in the Circular issued on 27th June 2017. Further, when Udyam Registration was implemented even then the Ministry of MSME did not allow Retailers and Wholesalers to obtain registration under the MSME scheme and avail benefits granted under it.

 

For long the Retailers & Wholesalers of India have been making continuous representations to the Ministry of MSME and requesting them to be allowed to obtain registration under the MSME Scheme to avail benefits granted under the scheme.

 

Finally, it seems that the Ministry of MSME under its new leadership has listened to the people of India and has issued the below circular.

 

The Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises through its Circular No. 5/2(2)/2021-E/P & G/Policy (E-19025) dated 2nd July 2021, has allowed the activities of Retail and Wholesale Trading falling under the broad categories of 45, 46 & 47 of the NIC Codes to obtain Udyam Registration.


 

It is important to note that even though Retailers and Wholesalers have been allowed to obtain registration, the benefits granted under the MSME Scheme by the Ministry of MSME will not be passed on to these applicants by default. Currently, the benefits have been restricted to Priority Sector Lending only.
