To facilitate the procedure of MSME registration in accordance with the revised MSME definition, Ministry of MSME launched a new portal – Udyam Registration Portal (udyamregistration.gov.in), on 1st July 2020.
It is a unified portal with a registration process that is free of cost, paperless and digital. The portal is aimed at reducing transaction time and costs for entrepreneurs and promoting Ease of Doing Business. Generally, it takes 2-3 days, in cases wherein GST/PAN details are part of registration. For those without PAN details, the certificate is available on the same day.
