SSI MSME Registration

To avail the benefits under the MSMED Act from Central or State Government and the Banking Sector, MSME Registration is required. MSME stands for micro, small and medium enterprises and any enterprise that falls under any of these three categories. Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector has emerged as a highly vibrant and dynamic sector of the Indian economy over the last five decades.

On 13th may, 2020 Government of India announced some major relief to the MSMEs. And one of the major relief is that the Government Revised the definition of the MSMe as a whole.

Under the new definitions, the distinction between manufacturing and services enterprises has been eliminated and the investments have been revised upwards and an additional criteria of turnover has been introduced.

What is the new & Revised definition of MSMe?

The new definition of MSMe is as follows:

Micro Enterprise:  Manufacturing and services enterprises with investments up to Rs 1 crore and turnover up to Rs 5 crore will be classified as micro enterprises.

Small Enterprise: For small enterprises, the investment criteria and the turnover criteria has been revised upwards to Rs 10 crore and Rs 50 crore respectively.

Medium Enterprise: The enterprises which have investment up to Rs 20 crore and turnover up to Rs 100 crore will be termed as medium enterprises.

The new definition will benefit all the MSMes as they need not worry about growing in size; they will still be able to get quite a lot of benefits which otherwise, as an MSME, they have got.

This said new definition of MSMe is a welcome move for the promotion of the Atma Nirbhar Bharat Abhiyan by the Government of India.

Any Micro, Small and medium-sized enterprises in the manufacturing and service sector can obtain MSME Registration. MSME is used interchangeably with SSI, which stands for Small Scale Industries.

Though the MSME registration is not statutory, it is beneficial for business at it provides a range of benefits such as eligibility for capital investment subsidies, lower rates of interest,  tax subsidies, power tariff subsidies, and other support.
