## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF MICRO, SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES (SHRI NARAYAN RANE)

(a) to (c): As  per  Udyog  Aadhaar  Portal  (since  inception  October  2015  to  June  2020),  the number of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) registered in All India was 102,32,468. The State wise details are attached in annexure-I.

On 1st July, 2020, after adoption of new definition of MSMEs, a new registration portal 'Udyam Registration' has been launched by Ministry of MSME and so far 36,70,538 classified MSMEs are registered on the portal in All India (from 01.07.2020 to 15.07.2021). The State wise details are attached in annexure-II.

As MSMEs are present in both formal and informal sector, data regarding temporary or permanent  closure  of  the  units  are  not  maintained  by  the  Government  of  India  in  Ministry  of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME).

Studies have been conducted by National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC) and Khadi and  Village  Industries  Commission  (KVIC)  to  assess  the  impact  of  COVID-19  Pandemic  on MSMEs  including  units  set  up  under  Prime  Minister's  Employment  Generation  Programme (PMEGP).

- A. The main findings of the online study conducted by NSIC to understand the operational capabilities  and  difficulties  faced  by  the  beneficiaries  of  NSIC  schemes  amid  Covid-19 pandemic are as follows:
- i. 91% MSMEs were found to be functional.
- ii. Five  most  critical  problems  faced  by  MSMEs  were  identified  as  Liquidity  (55% units),  Fresh  Orders  (17%  units),  Labour  (9%  units),  Logistics  (12%  units)  and availability of Raw Material (8% units.)
- B. The findings of the study conducted by KVIC are as under:

- i. 88%  of  the  beneficiaries  of  PMEGP  scheme  reported  that  they  were  negatively affected due to Covid-19 while the remaining 12% stated that they were benefitted during Covid-19 Pandemic.
- ii. Among the 88% who were affected, 57% stated that their units were shut down for some time during this period, while 30% reported drop in production and revenue.
- iii. Among the 12% who had benefitted, 65% stated that their business increased as they had units in retail and health sector and around 25% stated that their units benefitted as they were dealing with essential commodities or services.
- iv. On  the  question  of  regular  payment  of  salaries  to  the  employees,  around  46.60% respondents stated that they had paid the salaries  in  full,  42.54% reported to  have partially paid and 10.86% reported to have not paid salary for some time during this period.
- v. Majority  of  the  beneficiaries  expressed  the  need  for  additional  financial  support, relaxation of waiver of interest and marketing support for their products.

The Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) implement various other schemes for the growth and development of MSME sector in the country. These include Prime Minister's  Employment  generation  Programme  (PMEGP),  Micro  and  Small  Enterprises-Cluster Development Programme (MSE-CDP), Scheme of Fund for Regeneration of Traditional Industries (SFURTI), Credit Linked Capital Subsidy and Technology Upgradation Scheme (CLCS-TUS) and SC/ST Hub.

Post Covid-19, Government has taken a number of initiatives under Aatma Nirbhar Bharat Abhiyan to support the MSME Sector in the country especially in Covid-19 Pandemic. Some of them are:

- i)   Rs 20,000 crore Subordinate Debt for MSMEs.
2. ii)  Rs 3 lakh crores Collateral free Automatic Loans for business, including MSMEs.
3. iii) Rs. 50,000 crore equity infusion through MSME Fund of Funds.
4. iv) New revised criteria for classification of MSMEs.
- v) New Registration of MSMEs through 'Udyam Registration' for Ease of Dong Business.
6. vi) No global tenders for procurement up to Rs. 200 crores, this will help MSME.

An  online  Portal  'Champions'  has  been  launched  on  01.06.2020  by  Hon'ble  Prime Minister. This covers many aspects of e-governance including grievance redressal and handholding of MSMEs. Through the portal, total 35,361 grievances have been redressed upto 12.07.2021.

- (d):      All new and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or services including  trading  activity  are  eligible  to  be  covered  under  Credit  Guarantee  Scheme  (CGS) implemented  by  Credit  Guarantee  Fund  Trust  for  Micro  and  Small  Enterprises  (CGTMSE). CGTMSE has approved 4,35,520 guarantees for an amount of Rs. 30,168.57 crore during 2018-19, 8,46,650 guarantees for an amount of Rs. 45,851.22 crore during 2019-20, 8,35,592 guarantees for an amount of Rs. 36,899.39 crore during 2020-21.

CGSSD has approved 473 guarantees for an amount of Rs. 55.33 crore during 2020-21.

Under  Interest  Subvention  Scheme  for  Incremental  Credit  to  MSMEs,  number  of beneficiaries and amount are 13,62,355 and Rs. 541.51 crore during 2019-20 and 9,08,860 and Rs. 431.07 crore during 2020-21.

As  part  of  the  Aatma  Nirbhar  Bharat  Abhiyaan,  under  the  Emergency  Credit  Line Guarantee  Scheme  (ECLGS),  around  1.09  crore  MSME  borrowers  have  been  provided  with guarantee support amounting to Rs. 1.65  lakh crore  as on 02.07.2021.
