Udyam Registration for MSMEs in India
The Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector is essential to India's economic development, accounting for almost 30% of GDP and 45% of exports. To streamline benefits and legalize small enterprises, the Ministry of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises introduced Udyam Registration in 2020, replacing the previous Udyog Aadhaar registration system. If you are a business owner, startup founder, freelancer, or SME professional, Udyam Registration provides access to government advantages, financial support, and legal protection.
At Patron Accounting, we help businesses navigate the online Udyam Registration process with ease. Whether you run a manufacturing unit or a service-based firm, our experts ensure that your registration is error-free, compliant, and fully optimized for claiming MSME incentives.
What is Udyam Registration?
Udyam Registration is a government-issued digital certificate that identifies a business as a Micro, Small, or Medium Enterprise under the MSMED Act of 2006. The Ministry of MSME manages the registration process, which is entirely online through the Udyam portal (udyamregistration.gov.in).
Businesses must be registered under Udyam to avail of numerous government schemes such as priority lending, tax subsidies, ease of compliance, participation in tenders, and more. It is mandatory for enterprises seeking MSME benefits to register using their Aadhaar number and PAN.
