## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR MICRO, SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES (SHRI BHANU PRATAP SINGH VERMA)

- (a): As  per  73 rd round  of  National  Sample  Survey  (NSS)  conducted  by  Ministry  of  Statistics  & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) during July 2015-June 2016, the estimated number of enterprises was 6.34 crore. The State/UT wise details are attached as annexure-I.
- (b) & (c): As per information received from Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation, the Share of Gross Value Added (GVA) of MSME sector in All India GDP during 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20 and 2020-21 were 29.25%, 29.69%, 30.50%, 30.50% and 26.83% respectively. From the above data, it is evident that share of MSME GVA in all India GDP has been fluctuating in last 5 years.
- (d) & (e): COVID-19 epidemic has temporarily  affected  various  sectors  including  Micro,  Small and  Medium  Enterprises  in  the  country.  Economic  activity  contracted  due  to  the  strict  lockdown measures imposed by the Government. This contraction has also had impact on the MSME sector.

The Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) implements various schemes and  programmes  aimed  at  promotion  and  development  of  MSME  Sector  in  the  country  and  is continuously  striving  towards  higher  share  of  the  GDP.  These  schemes/programmes  include  MSME Champions  Scheme  (Erstwhile  CLCS-TUS),  Credit  Guarantee  Fund  Trust  for  Micro  and  Small Enterprises  (CGTMSE), Prime  Minister's  Employment  Generation  Programme  (PMEGP),  Micro and Small  Enterprises  -  Cluster  Development  Programme  (MSE-CDP)  and  Emergency  Credit  Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS).

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.3  lakh  crores  Emergency  Credit  Line  Guarantee  Scheme  (ECLGS)  for  Businesses, including MSMEs (which has subsequently been increased to Rs. 5 lakh crore, as announced in Budget 2022-23).
- ii. Rs. 50,000 crore equity infusion through Self Reliant India Fund.
- iii. New revised criteria for classification of MSMEs.
- iv. New Registration of MSMEs through 'Udyam Registration' for Ease of Doing Business.
