What to Expect from SME/MSME Sector in 2021?

What to Expect from SME/MSME Sector in 2021?

Do you know that a whopping 99% of businesses in India fall under the MSME category? But, their contribution to the GDP is as low as 35%!

The SME/MSME sector requires crucial growth enablers to realise its true potential. And, the top contender for the same is access to finance. This is where a business loan comes into play.

To receive external finance, MSMEs face high collateral requirements, along with skyrocketing interest rates. But few moneylenders offer a special SME loan at competitive interest rates to even MSMEs with a low credit score. The idea is to enable easy credit access for MSMEs.

Let us unfold the developments and small-scale business trends 2021 holds.

MSMEs and the Union Budget 2020-2021

The union budget suggests the following for the SME/MSME sector:

  1. Amendment of Factor Regulation Act, 2011 – It will result in the extension of invoice financing to the SME/MSME sector. They can make use of the SME working capital to cover short-term expenses.
  2. It recommended invoice financing loan products that are app-based for MSMEs.
  3. The launch of NIRVIK or Niryat Rin Vikas Yojana scheme introduces the MSME sector to higher export credit disbursement. It also provides reduced premium and increased insurance cover for the SME sector in India for 2021. This will activate substantial growth opportunities.
  4. It introduces a scheme to give subordinate debt that can act as quasi-equity to support MSME entrepreneurs.
  5. Also, the setup of an investment clearance cell, revision of turnover limits for availing tax benefits, and knowledge translation cluster setup to disseminate knowledge of processes are projected to change the dynamics of this sector.

The aforementioned developments hold considerable significance, given the MSME sector struggles with the following:

  • Lack of income tax norms as GST has a threshold turnover rate that most do not qualify
  • Low-to-no financial buffer
  • Poor credit history, mostly due to delayed payments to MSMEs
  • Low or no formal registration due to their size

Nonetheless, the SME/MSME sectorholds promise with the measures and attempts from the government to accelerate the supply chain finance for the MSME sector in 2021. The concept of supply chain finance relies on the credit history of large firms to offer financing solutions to SME/MSMEs. And, they can avail of easy credit from financial institutions.
