MSME Full Form & Definition

MSME stands for Micro, Small, Medium enterprises. The definition of MSMEs has been revised by the Ministry. Earlier, the benefits were limited to companies with less turnover or investment. With the fear of losing the entitled benefits, many MSMEs fear to outgrow the size of what has been defined as MSME. Hence, the new definition came into force that provided benefits to companies with a turnover of Rs 100 crore as well. The move will expand the capabilities and companies can expand their businesses with the support of the government.
