India MSME Report 2021: Disruptive New- Normal & Survival Strategies

The role of micro, small and medium enterprises in the Indian economy has been widely debated. The ‘India MSME Report Series (MSMER Series)’, since 1997, has been the torch bearer of this debate. This twenty-fourth Report deals with the theme, “Disruptive New- Normal & Survival Strategies” said Dr. P Mathew Director of the Institute. The report is based on extensive research, primary data and inputs derived from interactions with MSMEs, entrepreneurs, SME associations, Financial institutions, Consumers and Community organizations on a pan India basis by ISED- Small Enterprise Observatory.

Disruptive New- Normal & Survival Strategies

The ongoing Pandemic, Covid- 19, brings to light both the strengths and weaknesses of India’s huge MSME constituency and indicates that the country still has critical gaps in the areas of economic governance and public policy. The evidence-based policy holds the key for the country’s march forward.

Over the years, the MSMER Series has gained its significant credibility and influence in policy circles. While the Indian economy has gained a proud position within the club of Emerging Economies, it still needs to do a lot of homework to consolidate its position relating to the MSMEs.
