- Market Access: Preference in government procurement tenders and opportunities to showcase your products or services at MSME-centric trade fairs.
- Protections: Assistance with delayed payments through the MSME Samadhaan portal, safeguards against unjust practices, and quicker dispute resolutions.
- Technology & Skill Development: Subsidies or discounts on acquiring new technology and participating in skill-building programs to elevate your workforce.
