New Delhi, Nov 2
The Prime Minister,
Shri Narendra Modi, today
launched a historic
support and outreach
programme for the Micro,
Small and Medium
Enterprises (MSME)
sector. As part of this
programme, the Prime
Minister unveiled12 key
initiatives which will help
the growth, expansion and
facilitation of MSMEs
across the country.
The Prime Minister said
that the 12 decisions that
he is announcing today,
will mark a new chapter
for the MSME sector.
Noting that MSMEs are
one of the principal
employment generators in
India, the Prime Minister
recalled the glorious
Indian traditions of small
scale industry, including
Ludhiana’s hosiery, and
Varanasi’s sarees.
The Prime Minister said
that the success of
economic reforms
launched by the Union
Government, can be
gauged from the rise in

Outreach Initiative for MSME sector
India's “Ease of Doing
Business Rankings,”
from 142 to 77 in four
years.
The Prime Minister said
that there are five key
aspects for facilitating the
MSME sector. These
include access to credit,
access to market,
technology upgradation,
ease of doing business, and
a sense of security for
employees. He said that as
a Diwali gift for the sector,
the 12 announcements he
is making, will address
each of these five
categories.
Access to Credit
As the first
announcement, the Prime
Minister announced the
launch of the 59 minute
loan portal to enable easy
access to credit for
MSMEs. He said that loans
upto Rs. 1 crore can be
granted in-principle
approval through this
portal, in just 59 minutes.
He said a link to this portal
will be made available
through the GST portal.
The Prime Minister
asserted that in New India,
no one should be compelled
to visit a bank branch
repeatedly.
The Prime Minister
mentioned the second
announcement as a 2
percent interest
subvention for all GST
registered MSMEs, on
fresh or incremental
loans. For exporters who
receive loans in the pre-
shipment and post-
shipment period, the
Prime Minister announced
an increase in interest
rebate from 3 percent to 5
percent.
The third announcement
made by the Prime
Minister was that all
companies with a turnover
of more than Rs. 500
crore, must now
compulsorily be brought
on the Trade Receivables e-
Discounting System
(TReDS). He said that
joining this portal will
enable entrepreneurs to
access credit from banks,
based on their upcoming
receivables. This will
resolve their problems of
cash cycle.
Access to Markets
The Prime Minister said
that on access to markets for
entrepreneurs, the Union
Government has taken a
number of steps already. In
this context, he made his
fourth announcement, that
public sector companies
have now been asked to
compulsorily procure 25
percent, instead of 20
percent of their total
purchases, from MSMEs.(Contd. on last page)
