Indian small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) form the backbone of the economy of India. But these sectors had encountered numerous problems in accessing government schemes, loans, and support. With the launch of Udyam Registration, it has been highly convenient for MSMEs to get official recognition and use government facilities.

We are presenting here today some success stories in which Udyam Registration has taken small enterprises to great heights.

1. “Sangeet Handlooms” – Village Weavers to Global Brand

Sangita Devi, from a small village in Uttar Pradesh, had commenced a small handloom textiles business in 2018. At first, she was unable to find a market for her products. But in 2021, she registered under Udyam and was certified as an MSME.

This was followed by the Cluster Development Scheme of the government, where she acquired new machinery and opened up her unit.

Sangeeta Handlooms’ products are now being exported to Delhi, Mumbai, and even Dubai.

Sangita states, “Udyam registration gave our business recognition. Now it’s easier to get bank loans, and we’ve also had the opportunity to participate in government fairs.”

2. “Greentech Industries” – From Startup to Lasting Success

Pune-based Rahul Deshmukh began producing environment-friendly packaging materials in 2020. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, there was market demand, but he did not know about government support.

On a friend’s suggestion, he got his MSME registered on the Udyam Registration Portal.

After this registration, he availed a subsidized loan under the Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Yojana (PMEGP). In addition, after registering on the government e-marketplace (GeM), he also received several government orders.

Now, “Greentech Industries” is also one of the most reliable packaging brands in Maharashtra.

According to Rahul, “If I hadn’t done Udyam registration, my business would probably still be small.”

3. “Krishna Engineering Works” – A New Identity for an Old Business

Manish Patel’s family from Gujarat had been producing machine parts for 20 years, but the company was never registered as an MSME.

In 2022, Manish got his father’s business registered on the Udyam portal.

Thereafter, he availed the MSME Technical Improvement Scheme. Due to new technology and upgraded machinery, his production doubled.

He now sells directly to car companies.

Manish states, “Udyam registration not only provided recognition to our business from the government but also assisted us in reaching out to new-age technology.” 

4. “Arya Food Products” – A Story of Women’s Employment Journey

Rita Jha from the state of Bihar, and a couple of other women, opened a small homemade pickle and spice business.

They remained confined to local markets for a long time. But in 2021, she was granted Udyam registration, which entitled her to financial support under the Women Entrepreneur Scheme.

Today, products of Arya Food Products are being marketed through online platforms.

Rita states, “Earlier, our activities were confined to the village. But Udyam registration gave us recognition all over India.”

5. “TechSolutions IT Services” – The Strength of MSMEs in the Digital Economy

Aditya Verma from Noida began an IT services firm in 2019. He required formal validation to prove credibility to customers.

When he registered his firm as an MSME on the Udyam portal, it greatly impacted his professional record.

Now, his firm is executing multiple government contracts and availing perks such as exemption from bank guarantees.

Aditya opines, “The Udyam certificate provided our company with a credible identity. It further enhanced client confidence.”
