Handholding Support (MSME Facilitation Centre)

Many MSME entrepreneurs are not conversant with the provisions of relevant Acts and Rules, compliances, application forms, and the location of government offices to submit the applications for approvals, certificates and licenses to start enterprises or to avail government incentives.

Entrepreneurs were required to visit various offices to enquire, consult, and finally to submit applications. Apart from the running around, they often become victims of unscrupulous intermediaries.

Even after all this, more visits were required to be made to follow up and finally collect certificates or licenses. This remained one of the biggest challenges and a disincentive for entrepreneurs who wanted to start a new venture, diversify or expand.

• All information on statutory compliances needed to set up an enterprise or to avail government incentives.
• Application forms.
• A checklist of the documents to be attached with the application.
