Abstract

India's economic progress and GDP growth have been mostly driven by small and medium-sized businesses, or SMEs. As of March 27, 2022, there were over 7.9 million MSMEs in India, according to the Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises. India's and the world's economies have grown because of small enterprises. In a nation with an economy the size of India, small businesses make up 95% of the industrial units, and they provide 40% of the nation's total industrial production. Once more, tiny companies account for around 45% of India's overall export earnings. This paper explores the importance of small businesses in India, their contributions, their challenges, and their evolving role in driving sustainable and inclusive economic development.
