The Cabinet approves an upward revision of MSME definition and modalities/ road map for implementing the remaining two Packages for MSMEs (a) Rs 20000 crore package for Distressed MSMEs and (b) Rs 50,000 crore equity infusion through Fund of Funds.

The limit of the small units was increased to Rs. 10 crore of investment and Rs 50 crore of turnover. Similarly, the limit of a medium unit was increased to Rs 20 crore of investment and Rs. 100 crores of turnover. It may be noted that this revision was done after 14 years since the MSME Development Act came into existence in 2006. After the package announcement on 13th May, 2020, there were several representations that the announced revision is still not in tune with market and pricing conditions and it should be further revised upwards. This will help in attracting investments and creating more jobs in the MSME sector. The Government of India has been taking all necessary steps to ensure that the benefit of these landmark decisions reaches to the MSMEs at the earliest. In this regard, the following necessary policy decisions have been already taken and the implementation strategy has been put in place. To manage all this, a robust ICT-based system called CHAMPIONS has also been launched by the Ministry of MSME. The portal is not only helping and handholding MSMEs in the present situation but is also providing guidance to grab the new business opportunities and in the long run, become national and international Champions.
