He has pointed out that certain important changes in the definition of MSME have been incorporated under the \u201c<em>Atmanirbhar Bharat Package<\/em>\u201d and a new procedure of Udyam Registration has also been introduced. All of these important aspects have been explained by the ld. author in a succinct manner<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises  (MSME) sector has emerged as a highly growing and dynamic sector of the Indian  economy over the last decade. India has more than 6 crore units falling under  MSME categories which contribute approximately 29% to the country&rsquo;s GDP. These  enterprises not only play crucial role in providing large employment  opportunities at comparatively lower capital cost than large industries but  also help in industrialization of rural &amp; backward areas, thereby, reducing  regional imbalances, assuring more equitable distribution of national income  and wealth. MSMEs are complementary to large industries as ancillary units and  this sector contributes enormously to the socio-economic development of the  country.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises  Development (MSMED) Act was notified in 2006 to address policy issues affecting  MSMEs as well as the coverage and investment ceiling of the sector.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, Modi Government introduced new  Udyog Aadhaar Scheme under the campaign of &lsquo;Make in India&rsquo; to make the process  of registration easy with only requirement of one Aadhaar for one enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>Then, after 14 years, the much-expected  change in the definition of MSME was brought to reality by the Modi Government  under the &ldquo;Atmanirbhar Bharat Package&rdquo;. Also, a new procedure of Udyam  Registration was introduced which triggered the reclassification for all MSME  enterprises exiting on 30th June 2020.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, I have discussed and  compared the changes which have been made through the Notification S.O. 2119(E)  dated 26th June, 2020 in the MSMED Act, 2006 and also tried to explain the new  method of classification of enterprises.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A. <u>Role of MSMEs in Indian Economy-<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I.

Outgrowing this definition meant outgrowing and going out of receiving  benefits. With this revision and a further future favourable attitude of the  government towards this sector, the MSMEs would now be able to procure more,  produce more, hire more and will play a vital role in India&rsquo;s dream of USD 5  trillion dollar economy.<\/p>\n<p>  The  revision of the definition had been a longstanding demand of the sector and the  sector is welcoming this change. However, the change in definition brought  through a single notification does not clear all the things right now. This has  changed the whole scenario of MSME sector and will need more clarifications  regarding investment criteria and automatic reclassification procedure to be  linked with ITR and GST return.<\/p>\n<div class=\"journal2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/itatonline.org\/articles_new\/udyam-registration-rebirth-msmes\/#blurbdl\">Click here to download the article in pdf format<\/a><\/div>\n<table width=\"103%\" border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFCC\">\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Disclaimer: <\/strong>The  contents of this document are solely for informational purpose.
