The rules for MSME (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) registration vary by country, but here’s an overview of the rules and procedures in India under the MSME Development Act, 2006, as updated by the Aatmanirbhar Bharat package in 2020:

Eligibility Criteria (Based on Investment and Turnover Limits)

Classification of MSMEs (Effective from July 1, 2020):

1. Micro Enterprise:

   • Investment in plant and machinery or equipment: Up to ₹1 crore.
   • Annual turnover: Up to ₹5 crore.

2. Small Enterprise:

   • Investment in plant and machinery or equipment: Up to ₹10 crore.
   • Annual turnover: Up to ₹50 crore.

3. Medium Enterprise:

   • Investment in plant and machinery or equipment: Up to ₹50 crore.
   • Annual turnover: Up to ₹250 crore.

Notes:

• Both manufacturing and service sectors are treated equally under this classification.
• Composite criteria of investment and turnover apply; crossing either limit will result in reclassification.

Registration Process

1. Udyam Registration:

   • All MSMEs must register on the Udyam Registration portal (https://udyamregistration.gov.in).
   • The process is fully online, self-declared, and paperless.

2. Documents Required:

   • Aadhaar Card:
     • For proprietors: Aadhaar of the proprietor.
     • For partnership firms: Aadhaar of the managing partner.
     • For companies: Aadhaar of the director.
   • PAN Card and GSTIN (mandatory for medium enterprises and GST-registered entities).
   • Details of business activity, investment in plant/machinery, and turnover (as self-declared).

3. Key Points:

   • No documents or proof are required to upload during registration.
   • The Udyam Registration Number (URN) is issued instantly upon completion.
   • An e-certificate is provided post-registration.

Rules and Regulations

1. Multiple Registrations:

   • One enterprise can register only once with one Aadhaar number, regardless of its multiple branches or activities.

2. Dynamic Classification:

   • Enterprises are reclassified based on annual turnover or investment.
   • Enterprises must update their details annually; non-compliance may lead to suspension of MSME status.

3. Exclusions:

   • Activities involving trading, real estate, or financial services do not qualify under MSME definitions.

4. Benefits Linked to Registration:

   • Priority lending from banks.
   • Concessions in electricity bills and patent fees.
   • Access to government subsidies and exemptions under direct tax laws.
   • Protection against delayed payments.

5. Verification by Authorities:

   • Authorities may verify self-declared data through Income Tax and GST systems.

Important Updates

1. No Renewal Required: Udyam Registration remains valid as long as the business complies with the investment and turnover limits.
2. Integrated Systems: MSME data is integrated with GST and Income Tax systems to avoid duplication.
