"Targeted credit delivery is a thorny issue around the world. Legislation and creation of institutional structures can contribute significantly to providing the ecosystem. However, the actual flow of credit to the targeted social categories, depends on the absorptive capacity of these social categories and their enterprises. While absorptive capacity of women enterprises depends on their viability and vibrancy, it is also important that, from an angle of gender sensitivity, the other stake holders should play a supportive role to creating and enhancing such absorptive capacity. It is important to discuss this rather difficult subject ,on the basis of the evidences available from the field." More |

"Gender budgeting is not a ‘one-fit-for all ‘ solution in the agenda of woman empowerment. Nor are national level policies and directives, by themselves, helpful in achieving these objectives, as demonstrated by the RBI guidelines and their implementation. Under a regime of cooperative federalism, the initiatives have to come from the sub national and regional levels. In this context, the role of the Central Government, and the Central agencies should be as promoters of knowledge creation and diffusion. At the institutional level, the introduction of a regime of voluntary standards, along with broad regulatory measures, may help to some extent." More |

"While gender mainstreaming in India has got significant policy attention and practice, the sustainability of such mainstreaming initiatives, with special focus on enterprise development, have not got the attention they deserve. Gender mainstreaming becomes a meaningful initiative, essentially when the capabilities of women are enhanced. The spirit of enterprise is a focal theme which deserves close attention here. The key question, therefore, relates to how the initiatives for economic empowerment of women have contributed to triggering their creativity and the spirit of enterprise. A detailed discussion on this topic is crucial from the point of view of research and policy. Mainstreaming gender, as a concept, is by now, well accepted at the policy level. But on its practice, there is need for much improvement. For that, the operational meaningfulness of the concept must be examined in detail. There is also need for a road map for action." More |

"India has a number of public programmes, designed and implemented with the involvement of women and their associations. It is important to examine their present status and potential from the point of view of better planning and, targeting and, if needed , corrective action. It is generally perceived that, impacts are much less than the potential, mainly because of lack of convergence of such programmes. How can convergence happen? There can be divergence of opinion on this issue. Such a discussion need to be initiated against a review of the various existing programmes." More |

"Ever since the launch of the ‘International Women’s Decade’, the subject area of ‘women entrepreneurship’ has gained significant attention in both academic and policy spaces. However, the organic relationships that explain the subject area has not gained adequate attention so far. An integrated approach to development need to be designed and taken forward, wherein , both analysis and policy need to lead to a meaningful strategic approach. This makes an excursion into this neglected terrain of ‘gender and entrepreneurship’, essentially from an analytical point of view, a major imperative.." More |

"Most progressive governments, across the world, have come out with some basic law that governs SME policy and practice. While such a basic law is a reference point, it needs to have dynamic elements that can help to capture the emerging realities of future as well. In India, though the MSME Development Act was passed in 2006, against the felt needs as articulated by the MSME associations, and other stakeholders. However, significant changes have since taken place in the overall MSME environment, thereby demanding a review of the legislation. The Act essentially provides for four key subjects that are of importance to sustainable development of MSMEs in the country: 1. Promotion; 2. Development; 3. Enhancing competitiveness; and 4. Other incidental matters. Beyond the above vision and objectives, rapid changes have taken place in the economy in several ways. Many of the routine functional areas of MSME development and practices have got decimated. The growth of e-commerce, and the escalated phenomenon of globalisation induced market distortions are issues that demand innovative solutions." More |

"Following the early initiatives by the government of India for targeting credit to vulnerable sections of society including women, there has been several institutional attempts to ensure credit delivery among women. Though the multiplicity of institutions and their schemes have contributed to broad basing of finance, their impact on the women community, in terms of quality, remains an area of critical gap. it is important to examine these critical gaps, and offers some suggestions for policy."

"Understanding the macro level phenomena relating to gender, enterprise, and finance, is difficult unless there is a close understanding of the micro level processes. Unlike the general analysis of entrepreneurship, and the motivational factors behind that, the factors influencing women entrepreneurship are distinct. Since gender is a biological factor, and family, as a factor influencing division of labour, it is important that these two aspects are factored into the analysis of entrepreneurial behavior. A micro level analysis is, therefore, crucial. The attempt in the following pages is to make such an analysis..The conventional model of ‘infrastructure- finance –marketing model’ cannot contribute much to entrepreneurship development. In the modern environment, the imperatives lie in releasing and enhancing the hidden capabilities, and providing a suitable ecosystem where knowledge has a significant role. After all, in a knowledge economy, it is knowledge and capabilities that can empower women, not simply registration, infrastructure and credit facility" More |

"In the agenda of entrepreneurship development, institutional finance, undoubtedly, has a key role to play. However, the way this role is performed, is dependent on the objective situation prevailing in each country. Institutional structures are a dominant factor. India has a strong network of public sector banks that play the lead role. Against the regulatory and promotional framework in the country, this paper looks into the role of institutional finance in taking forward the agenda of women entrepreneurship development. The debates on the subject today remain largely partial. On issues relating to flow of institutional credit, there are often arguments on fundamentalist grounds. Such arguments are not likely to help in evolving pragmatic solutions. The situation, as it remains today, is that institutional finance for women entrepreneurship development is, in practice, a divided house. The public financial institutions generally do not find a business case for women entrepreneurship development. Similarly, the financial institutions generally do not find gender as an area of opportunities, but at best, as an area where commitments have been forced upon them." More |

"The entrepreneurship route to women empowerment has now been widely debated around the world. There are two key aspects that form the compass of such debates: 1) entrepreneurship; 2) gender. Unless these two aspects come together in a synergic manner, the objectives of social policy relating to gender sensitive development are not likely to be fulfilled. While such an integrated approach to development need to be designed and taken forward, fundamental questions come to the fore: 1) Does women entrepreneurship differ from entrepreneurship in general?; and 2) Is the problem of finance essentially gender-specific, or, a more visible reflection of a general problem of all SMEs? A realistic answer to these two questions is crucial from the point of view of design and implementation of programmes meant for economic empowerment of women." More |

The focal theme of this Report is the distributional aspects of SME development. It examines India's labour market behaviour in relation to approaches and strategies towards self employment and entrepreneurship creation. The picture, as on today, has been examined in relation to historical data on public programs and their outcomes. The study also brings out the aspect of diversity, in relation to regional patterns of MSME development as well as subsector experience. More |

"Action for gender empowerment depends on the political will to gain it. But here, the underlying question is, how economic empowerment is perceived. If it is on the enterprise route, one need to follow the rules of the game. The focus need to be on the value chain. In order to act on the value chain, particular capabilities are need. The prime question for policy, therefore, is, whether such capabilities exist today. If not, they need to be imparted. Who will impart that? Here the question of repetitiveness of institutions and their initiatives need to be examined thoroughly. The ultimate principle need to be a principle of comparative advantage:'competence to be counted where it counts most, and incompetence, where it counts least’." More |

"In most debates on ‘gender and enterprise’, the major emphasis is on preferential treatment of policy, finance, and training opportunities, as the key drivers of equalizing opportunities for women entrepreneurs. However, several studies on enterprise development in general, and SME development in specific, have brought to the fore the crucial role of knowledge inputs in enterprise development. While in the present knowledge- driven economy, such inputs are crucial, gender brings in an added dimension as well. Knowledge has emerged as one of the most important development resources, and it is perceived that full utilization of knowledge can dramatically accelerate India’s development. There is a growing gap between knowledge generation and knowledge application in India. While there are a range of strategies to close this gap and accelerate progress, such strategies need to be examined. Therefore, it is important to discuss the rationale of knowledge systems in enterprise development, especially in the context of women enterprises, in a context where women’s access to resources are generally considered to be weak."

"Business start-up, in any economy, is a powerful indicator of the growth of entrepreneurship resources. While employment is a central concern of today in most countries of the world, there are only limited options before the governments; promotion of start-ups is one among them. Unlike this global trend, India as an emerging economy, has significant opportunities in expanding its base of self employment- induced job creation, which the country has neglected for long. Beyond a social goal, entrepreneurship is a critical resource in waiting for India. However, to tap this potential effectively, the country needs to move forward towards a concrete labour market policy. Though skill development and start-up promotion are keywords of the day, an integrated concept of entrepreneurship as a critical resource, and a policy approach that can fully harness the potential of this resource, are the imperatives of the times."

"There are three long- term trends in the global economy today: First, globalization and interconnectedness. The opening up of trade and financial flows has helped to raise global growth and welfare, but without eliminating poverty in all economies-it also poses major challenges like rising inequality, which is increasingly noticeable around the world today. It is projected that, in the coming decades, powerful forces of globalization-communication technology, financial flows, migration-will continue to influence the world we live in. Second is demographic change. Life expectancy in many countries of the North has led to a swelling of the dependency ratio. Other societies, especially in Asia, will also go through a dramatic aging of the population in the future. All these will have enormous ramifications-socially, politically, and economically. Third is technological innovation. Technological progress is having a revolutionary impact in many ways-it raises people’s expectations in this hyper-connected world, but will also make a lot of traditional jobs obsolete. These underlying drivers create both opportunities and challenges for MSMEs. Of course, through difficult steps, they need to identify and sustain their space. India’s MSMEs have several positives in a relative sense, though much of it still remains yet to be tapped." More |

"A proper understanding of business demography is a sine qua non for development of meaningful enterprise development policies and strategies. However, in many developing countries, this vitality has not been properly understood by planners and policy makers. The difference between economic governance and public administration often underplayed or misunderstood, and the so-called” data” become a tool in the hands of amateur bureaucrats. While data collection, preservation and dissemination are vital for planning and administrative purposes, it need to be considered as an intermediary stage in the process of knowledge creation.. A total review of the database management system needs to be undertaken, with particular emphasis on the its utility for current ‘management decision’ of the various stakeholders, providing for utmost openness and timeliness. Keeping critical, non-classified, data under cover is not conducive to democratic policy development which the government has already commenced in a big way. Development of a clear cut data policy needs to be thoroughly debated in the Indian context." More |

"A unique feature of India’s micro , small and medium enterprises is their regional diversity. This, unlike in many other countries, is a reflection of the geographical and cultural diversity of the country. Such diversity is, alternatively, a significant latent opportunity, which probably, is paralleled by China alone. It also offers significant market opportunities for these enterprises. However, policies of the State governments, so far, have tried to follow a national pattern, rather than to grab the local opportunities. The perspective brought in by NITI Aayog paves the way for an alternative line of thinking. A true spirit of cooperative federalism can help to strengthen the national economy, as also the economies of the States. However, the State governments need to evolve region- specific strategies, rather than try to copy national level models and strategies relating to MSME development." More |

"Responsible business practices have gained an unprecedented role and relevance in modern business. For the planners and the policy makers, it gives an opportunity for a look back on the qualitative aspects of enterprise development, rather than confining on sheer numbers. ‘Responsible business’, as an essentially global concept, need to gain stronger and deeper attention in India for a variety of reasons. It provides an opportunity for having a closer look at the way business is done, as also opportunities and constraints attached to global value chains. While the role of the individual firm in this regard may be limited, at the cluster level, the potential is much greater. However, following the announcement of the ‘National Voluntary Guidelines’, much has not happened on the practical side in order to nurture a culture of ‘responsible business’ among MSMEs in the country. There is the imperative for developing a practical approach, which will enable the Indian MSMEs to perform better in the global value chains." More |

"While the MSME constituency has created substantial institutional structures over time, many of these institutions have outlived their purpose and relevance. While it is important that many such institutions have to reinvent themselves, there is a general lethargy in governance, that often is not conducive to such changes. In such a context, it is the strength, dynamism, and vibrancy of public policy that helps necessary restructuring for the common good. India does not have a strong labour market policy. Naturally, the country cannot visualise an objective picture of its human resources at any point of time. Such a clarity would, naturally, provide both market signals and policy clarity. The public policy architecture in India so far, has been built around the so-called ‘Committee System’, which, structurally, has a built-in ad hocism. Unless this architecture undergoes a major change in favour of a system of evidence based policy making, the contribution of public policy to enterprise development in the country is likely to remain constrained."

Against such changes, it is necessary to examine the new challenges and opportunities of the sector from a futuristic point of view. In every democracy, the developmental outcomes are decided by people’s aspirations, to begin with. These aspirations need to be articulated through effective platforms. Institutions are the outcome of these platforms and their initiatives. People’s mandate legitimizes the actions of institutions. Unless public policy, evolved through democratic process, gives the signals, one cannot expect India to realize its aspirations on the MSME front.

"Finance is undoubtedly a necessary, but not a sufficient condition for MSME sustainability. India has pioneered several experiments in ensuring credit in an inclusive manner. While these social aspects of finance are crucial, it is important to note that, there are several non finance aspects that are critical and pressing in ensuring sustainability of these enterprises. Despite recommendations of various expert committees, as also official pronouncements relating to MSME finance, there still lacks an integrated approach involving credit and non-credit interventions.. It is on top of such a dual system that institutional platforms attempt to offer solutions. The broad basing of micro lending, especially through the new scheme MUDRA, is an important step to forward. But effective knowledge system that can address the challenges of MSME development in the country is a critical gap today. Credit Guarantee systems and Business Development Services need a fresh look, and needs reforms" More |

India has many public programmes meant for the development of its micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). They mostly relate to functional areas such as, marketing, technology, and entrepreneurship. However, an integrated understanding of ‘real services’, as also a mechanism for their effective delivery are areas that deserve immediate attention. The findings of many evaluation studies indicate this critical gap. The primary task of a new policy approach should be to pitch this gap. While rapid technology and organisational changes take place, the very survival of SMEs would depend upon, not simply access to such technologies and organisational changes, but more importantly, how the changes are delivered. Developing a new horizon on business development services (BDS) is important to take the country’s MSME sector to the next level. The focus of this paper is on two major areas: a) organisational strategies; and b) BDS products. This dual focus is important, as none of the policy studies by expert committees and researches by individual scholars in the past have ever attempted such an approach. More |

Against the background of the rapid changes in the global economy, to which India and Gujarat are getting increasingly integrated, the challenges to SME competitiveness have gone up. However, a prerequisite for enhanced competitiveness, is an environment of competition itself. The legal and institutional framework prevailing in the Country and in Gujarat are decisive in providing these preconditions. One laudable achievement of Gujarat is its integrated approach to investment promotion as a key to rapid growth. It requires greater efforts towards developing and branding of clusters , rewarding innovative entrepreneurs , and development of infrastructure, especially , ports, airports, logistic services and industrial estates .Moreover, the state need to strengthen its economic infrastructure, such as, quality testing facilities, incubators, enabling firms conversant with IPR and export procedures/regulations, entrepreneurship development, and design technology. Such an integrated approach helps the State to go beyond the constraints of narrow departmentalism, a malaise faced by many other States of the Country. Gujarat’s MSME growth, even while appreciating the focused efforts of the Government, is more of a spillover of overall growth. But in order to help the MSME sector to enjoy the benefits of such growth in a more meaningful way, legal and institutional reforms are vital. More |

The focal theme of this Report is the emerging trend towards slowdown in the global economy, and its implications for India. While economists generally argue for "pump- priming" as the dominant strategy for anti-cyclical action, the specific issues and requirements of SMEs often take a back seat. Such issues vary from country to country and according to the particular subsectors. This Report brings the structural problems of SMEs into the center- stage of analysis and policy. On the basis of detailed studies in the case of eight representative subsectors, MSMER 2019 argues for a 'Tortoise and Hare' strategy. This strategic approach involves, a discretionary policy support for the highly innovative firms, on the one hand, and the large army of tiny and small enterprises on the other. The philosophy of the Report is grounded on preserving the entrepreneurial diversity and legacy of India, by upholding entrepreneurship as a critical social resource to be preserved and nurtured.

Industrial policy, in India, has traditionally been understood in terms of its twin objectives, i.e., employment promotion and balanced regional development. These two objectives are mutually reinforcing. It is important that, while public policy is implemented in terms of programs, a balance between the two need to be ensured. During the Liberalization era, this traditional objective has undergone major changes, as ‘collective efficiency’ became a central part of development policy. Today, while the State governments compete each other on investment promotion strategies, it is natural that ‘regional development’ strategies are traded off against ‘collective efficiency’ strategies. This has practically happened in many States. This research is an attempt to analyze the changes that are underway in Tamil Nadu, and its impact on overall objectives of development policy. It also gives indications on the way forward. Keywords: Agglomeration analysis, spatial density analysis, enterprise hubs, magnets of manufacturing More |

The general perception in academic and policy circles today is that, under a situation of slowdown in the economy, the SMEs are more seriously affected than the large businesses. On this rationale, governments often announce uniform relief packages, assuming that the impact of a slowdown is broadly of a uniform nature among different types and categories of businesses. Such policy prescriptions are often based on a particular perception on the structural and operational linkages of enterprises of different size classes. Available evidences on the Indian experience, as given by this research, indicates distinct patterns of slowdown- effect among different types of SMEs. Based on various subsector typologies, and of the life cycle position, this paper argues for a discrete strategic approach of supporting SMEs, in order to help them to come out of the pains of a slowdown in the economy. The argument carried by this research initiative is that both the “tortoises”, and the “hares” need discrete support services, so that they can come out of such a crisis situation More |

COVID 19, the pandemic that broke out towards the fag- end of 2019, brings with it the seeds of a new global economic order. While the ‘Third Industrial Revolution’, by all means, was leading fast to a highly centralized global system tied up by global value chains, the objective experience of COVID 19 unleashes circumstances and arguments in favor of regional value chains, with ground for a decentralized manufacturing system. While the UN has recognized the strategic role of SMEs in the global development agenda, the Pandemic has contributed to buttressing this relevance. Both in the popular eye, as also in the media scrolls, the present circumstances lead to the doomsday for SMEs. But, it would be out of place to jump into such a conclusion. This 23rd issue of the ‘India MSME Report' series, running through nine chapters, encourages the search new policy directions. It adds to the agenda and debates on 'enterprise security', put forward by the ‘ISED Small Enterprise Observatory’. While the issues, on the one hand, are much more complex today, the responsibility of development practitioners also are on the rise. More |

The resignation of Geoffrey Hinton, the godfather of AI from the technology giant, Google, in May 2023, has triggered debates on the evolving techno-economic paradigm that is being unfolded, with possible unfavorable stakes on jobs and business sustainability. Besides its usual annual review of policy, practice, and developments, this twenty-sixth issue of the ‘India MSME Report series’ closely examines such scenario, and explores new directions in public policy and strategies. Bringing together the two streams of thinking, ie, the “Vikasit Bharat” agenda of the Government of India, and the vision of “Unleashing entrepreneurship”, as outlined by the United Nations, it puts forth the motto of “India First; SMEs First”, as the way forward. This Report puts forth a new vision and horizon for MSMEs in the country: ‘decentralized smart manufacturing’. More |
