 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.
 MSMEs not only play crucial role in providing large employment opportunities at comparatively lower capital
cost than large industries but also help in industrialization of rural & backward areas, thereby, reducing
regional imbalances, assuring more equitable distribution of national income and wealth.
 MSMEs are complementary to large industries as ancillary units and this sector contributes enormously to
the socio-economic development of the country.
 The Sector consisting of 36 million units, as of today, provides employment to over 80 million persons. The
Sector through more than 6,000 products contributes about 8% to GDP besides 45% to the total
manufacturing output and 40% to the exports from the country.
 Khadi and Village Industries (KVI) are two national heritages of India. It creates employment at a very low per
capita investment. The KVI Sector not only serves the basic needs of processed goods of the vast rural sector
of the country, but also provides sustainable employment to rural artisans
