MSME registration (now called Udyam) is a free government registration that gives small businesses access to a long list of benefits — from priority-sector lending and 1% lower interest rates, to protection from delayed payments, eligibility for government tenders, and 50%-discounted trademark / patent fees.
Although registration is free on the Udyam portal, errors in classification or NIC-code selection can disqualify you from key benefits. We handle the application end-to-end and ensure correct classification.
Key benefits
- Protection from delayed payments. Buyers must pay MSMEs within 45 days; failing which interest is payable at 3x the bank rate.
