What is MSME registration?
MSME (Udyam) registration certifies your business as a micro, small or medium enterprise on the government's Udyam portal. It unlocks priority-sector lending, tender preferences and protection against delayed payments. The government charges nothing, and neither do we.
Who needs MSME registration?
Businesses that want a bank loan treated as an MSME loan.
Micro and small businesses that sell to other businesses on credit (the 45-day payment rule).
Micro and small businesses that bid for government tenders.
Retail and wholesale traders, for priority sector lending only.
Benefits of MSME registration
Several benefits are only for micro and small enterprises. See the full list, with sources, in our MSME registration benefits guide.
Bank loans
Banks treat your loan as a priority sector loan. Micro and small enterprises get loans up to ₹10 lakh without collateral.
Late-payment protection
Buyers must pay micro and small suppliers within 45 days, or pay interest under the MSMED Act.
Government tenders
Micro and small enterprises get tender sets free of cost and are exempt from earnest money deposit.
Lower trademark fees
Small enterprises pay a lower trademark filing fee (₹4,500 instead of ₹9,000 per class for e-filing).
