Abstract

This paper examines the salient features of India's SME policy emerged since the promulgation of MSMED Act 2006. Based on these features, which are distinctly different from the policy measures introduced after India's first Industrial Policy Resolution, 1948 till 1991, and after 1991 till 2006, it delineates the major phases in India's SME policy evolution. Against this backdrop, the growth of SMEs from 2006/07 to 2012/13 relative to that of small scale industries from 1990/91 to 2005/06, is evaluated. Finally, the paper identifies the current challenges, and discusses policy imperatives for the development of SMEs and thereby Indian economy.
