OVERVIEW Of MSMEs IN INDIA
6 Overview of MSMEs in India
Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) epitomise the growth engine of any economy, and play a pivotal role in the overall industrial and economic development of a nation. They are the prime drivers for employment generation and GDP growth, besides contributing to balanced regional development. Further, MSMEs play an important role in economic diversification, social stability and in the development of the private sector. Therefore, it is important to nurture the seeds of entrepreneurship to sustain overall economic development.
As per World Bank estimates, MSMEs account for more than 80% of the total industrial enterprises in India. The entrepreneurial spirit and innovative nature of MSMEs have been crucial in driving competitiveness in the Indian economy. MSMEs and entrepreneurs play an important role for developing new paths to enable an economy achieve more sustainable and inclusive growth.
Definition and Economic Contribution of SMEs to the Indian EconomyOver the past two decades, the MSME sector has emerged as the most vibrant and dynamic sector of the Indian economy, with operations spanning across the manufacturing and services sectors. Apart from creating large scale employment opportunities at comparatively lower capital cost than large enterprises, MSMEs play a crucial role in reducing regional imbalances through industrialization of rural and backward areas.
The Indian government passed the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act, 2006, to address the policy issues affecting the SMEs and to extend the coverage and investment ceiling of the sector. The Act also aims to facilitate development of the sector along with enhancing its competitiveness. The MSMED Act, 2006, classifies enterprises broadly into: (i) Manufacturing enterprises and (ii) Services enterprises. The Act further classifies these enterprises into micro, small and medium enterprises based on their investment in plant and machinery (for manufacturing enterprises) or investment in equipment (for services enterprises). The following is the present ceiling on investment for enterprises to be classified as micro, small and medium enterprises:
India’s Definition of MSMEs

SmallAbove ` 2.5 mn & up to ` 50 Mn Above ` 1 mn & up to ` 20 mn
(Above $50,000 & up to $1 mn) (Above $20,000 & up to $400,000)

The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (Amendment) Bill, 2015, introduced in the Lok Sabha on April 20, 2015, seeks to review the definition of MSMEs, as follows:-
Proposed Amendment to Definition of MSMEs
Classification Manufacturing Enterprises Investment in Plant & Machinery

Micro Up to ` 5 mn Up to ` 2 mn
Small Above ` 5 mn & up to ` 100 mn Above ` 2 mn & up to ` 50 mn
Medium Above ` 50 mn & up to ` 300 mn Above ` 50 mn & up to ` 150 mnSource: Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises
Significance of MSME Sector in Indian EconomyMSMEs contributed around 37.5% of India’s overall GDP (manufacturing + services) in FY13. Of this, around 7% was contributed by the manufacturing sector. The chart below highlights the seven year trend in share in GDP:-

MSMEs accounted for around 37% of the overall manufacturing output in FY13, and contributed to more than 7% of the total manufacturing GDP of the country. In terms of value, the gross output of MSMEs stood at ` 18,099.8 bn (at 2004-05 prices) in FY13, registering a CAGR of 7.1% since FY07. Although the gross value of output of manufacturing MSME units reflects consistent growth, their share in GDP has shrunk from 7.73% in FY07 to 7.04% in FY13.

As per provisional numbers from the Ministry of MSME, there were nearly 49 mn working MSME enterprises as at the end of FY14. During FY14, the number of MSMEs rose by about 9% y-o-y, which is the fastest increase in the last seven years. This proves that the MSME sector is emerging as one the most dynamic and pervasive sectors of the economy.

The growth in MSME units in the country clearly outlines the growing interest in this sector. Over the years, MSME has shown consistent growth in terms of number of Entrepreneur Memorandum Part-II (EM-II) filed. In 2007-08, the District Industries Centers (DIC) across the country registered 172,703 new MSMEs; this number more than doubled to 362,991 MSMEs during 2013-14. This translates into a CAGR of 13.2% during the period.

Employment and fixed InvestmentsHistorically, MSMEs have been a significant source of employment in India. MSMEs offered employment to 111.4 mn people in 2013-14, as compared to 80.5 mn in 2006-07. In 2013-14, employment in the MSME sector grew by 5% as compared to a year ago. Likewise, the fixed investments in the sector jumped from ` 8,685.4 bn in 2006-07 to ` 13,637 bn by 2013-14, which translates into a CAGR of nearly 7% over a seven year period.

11Overview of MSMEs in India
In spite of banking regulators and banks constantly striving to make the financial system more and more MSME-friendly, lack of adequate working capital continues to hinder the growth of MSMEs. In the MSME context, finance includes equity capital, loans for fixed asset investment and working capital for meeting cash flow requirements. The weak credit profile of MSMEs restricts large-scale lending to the sector by banks and other financial institutions. Several regulatory & institutional initiatives have been taken to promote availability of finance to MSMEs thereby breaking the viscous circle of MSME financing.
Easing access to finance for the MSME sector is crucial for increasing employment, growth in exports and development of a manufacturing base, as envisaged in the Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative. The Ministry of MSME is also implementing a host of schemes to address MSME issues related to credit, infrastructure development and technology upgradation, among others. Some of these schemes are the Credit Guarantee Scheme, Credit Linked Capital Subsidy Scheme, Performance and Credit Rating Scheme, Cluster Development Programme, National Manufacturing Competitiveness Programme and Prime Minister’s Employment Generation Programme.
The Way AheadMSMEs across all major developed and developing economies have thrived on government support and an efficient MSME framework. MSMEs undoubtedly play a crucial role in any country’s economic growth. Hence it is imperative to support MSME growth by developing institutional infrastructure for advocacy, technical research, refinancing platforms and easy access to services. India too has a well-established MSME framework with institutions like the SIDBI, ECGC and Exim Bank offering direct and indirect support to MSMEs. It is, however, crucial to further enhance the scope of these vital institutions in order to strengthen MSMEs and multiply their impact on the economy.

ENGINEERING
30 Engineering
EngineeringThe engineering sector plays an important role in the development of other industrial sectors of the economy. It is closely linked with the manufacturing and infrastructure sectors. The sector caters to capacity creation requirements in an array of sectors like power, mining, oil & gas, refinery, steel, automotive and consumer durables. Engineering products are largely used as input in the capital goods industry. Hence, the growth and demand of this sector is largely fuelled by the growth and demand of the capital goods industry.
Indian engineering companies enjoy some degree of advantage in some of the engineering sub-sectors vis-à-vis foreign players, in terms of manufacturing costs, market knowledge, technology and creativity. The sector, therefore, attracts immense interest from foreign players. The government has de-licensed the engineering sectors and has allowed 100% FDI. Between Apr 2000 and Dec 2015, the foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into India’s miscellaneous mechanical and engineering industries stood at around USD 2,993.45 mn.
Engineering is a diverse sector encompassing a number of segments and can be broadly classified into the heavy engineering and light engineering sectors.
Heavy EngineeringHeavy engineering usually involves the manufacture of high value goods, using high-end technology. It generally entails huge capital investments and has high entry barriers. The heavy engineering industry comprises of machineries such as mining equipment, cement machinery, textile machinery, machine tools, material handling equipment, oil field equipment, rubber machinery, metallurgical machinery and dairy equipment. The heavy engineering goods find applications in industries such as power, infrastructure, steel, cement, petrochemicals, oil & gas, refineries, fertilisers, mining, railways, automobiles and textiles, among others.
Light EngineeringThe light engineering sector consists of a diverse set of sub-sectors including items such as medical instruments, sophisticated process control equipment, castings, forgings, fasteners, bearings, steel pipes and tubes. These sectors usually use medium to low end technology as compared to high-end technology used in the heavy engineering industry. Relatively lower requirement of capital and technology makes it a low entry barrier sector. The light engineering segment is characterised by small capacities and high level of competition. It is a highly labour intensive sector, and generates ample employment opportunities in the economy.
Some products that form part of the light engineering segment serve as inputs for the heavy engineering and capital goods sectors. Demand for engineering and capital goods, therefore, influence the overall health of the light engineering sector.

The Way forwardIncreased investment in infrastructure development and industrial production has helped India’s engineering sector to grow rapidly over the past few years. The Government envisages the current spending on engineering services to increase to USD 1.1 tn by the year 2020. With development in associated sectors such as automotive, industrial goods and infrastructure, coupled with a well-developed technical human resources pool, engineering exports are also expected to touch USD 120 bn by 2015.
GoI has made several announcements in the recent Union Budgets which are expected to directly and indirectly help the engineering sector. The Union Budget 2016-17 announced a slew of changes in indirect taxes, particularly customs and excise duty, to boost local manufacturing. The duty changes on inputs seek to make manufacturing competitive for sectors such as IT, capital goods and defence. For instance, GoI has scrapped excise duty on inputs, parts and components, and subparts for the manufacture of charger or adapter, battery and wired headsets or speakers of mobile phones. Measures such as exemption in customs duty on machinery used in the manufacture of semiconductor wafer fabrication, capital goods used in the manufacture of fuses and exemption in excise duty on capital goods used by ship repair units are also likely to aid the growth of the capital & engineering goods industry.
The government has also taken steps to improve the quality of technical education in the engineering sector by allocating a sum of ` 5 bn for setting up five more IITs in the states of Jammu & Kashmir, Chhattisgarh, Goa, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala. Funds have also been allocated for several infrastructure projects which are further expected to provide an impetus to the engineering sector.
