What is the Section 7(9) provision on classification continuity in Old Washermanpet, Chennai?

Section 7 of the MSMED Act read with the Press Note dated 18-10-2022 of the Ministry of MSME provides that on upward graduation, an enterprise continues to enjoy non-tax benefits of its previous category for a period of three years from the date of graduation. On downward regression (turnover or investment falling below current slab), the enterprise retains its existing higher status until the close of the year following the year of regression.

Comparison

Composite (Post-2020) vs Investment-Only (Pre-2020)

Why this matters here — Old Washermanpet businesses operate where the business activity radiating outward from Old Washermanpet Bus Stop and nearby commercial pockets, and with quick access via Old Washermanpet Bus Stop and feeder routes connecting Old Washermanpet to the rest of Chennai.

AspectComposite (Post-2020)Investment-Only (Pre-2020)
Excluded items in investmentPollution-control, R&D, industrial safety devices and items listed in Explanation 1 to Section 7(1) continue to be excluded; land & building always excludedSame Explanation 1 exclusions applied — land, building, pollution-control, R&D — but list operated on original invoice value rather than WDV
Government scheme eligibilityCGTMSE collateral-free credit, PSL classification, public procurement preference (25% reservation), TReDS onboarding, Samadhaan dispute resolution — all tagged to Udyam URNSame scheme bouquet accessed via UAM/EM-II; legacy registrations not migrated to Udyam ceased to be recognised after 31-03-2022 per S.O. 278(E)
Statutory basisNotification S.O. 1702(E) dated 26-06-2020 read with Section 7(1) of MSMED Act 2006 — investment in plant & machinery AND turnover both testedOld Section 7(1) classification — only original cost of plant & machinery (manufacturing) or equipment (service) was tested
Classification thresholdsMicro: investment up to ₹1 cr AND turnover up to ₹5 cr; Small: ₹10 cr AND ₹50 cr; Medium: ₹50 cr AND ₹250 crManufacturing — Micro ₹25 lakh, Small ₹5 cr, Medium ₹10 cr; Services — Micro ₹10 lakh, Small ₹2 cr, Medium ₹5 cr (investment only)
Sector distinctionNo distinction between manufacturing and service — single composite criteria apply to both activities under the unified Udyam regimeSeparate threshold tables for manufacturing and service enterprises under the erstwhile EM-II / Udyog Aadhaar memoranda regime
Investment computation sourceLinked to ITR depreciation block (WDV) for prior-year filers; self-declaration for new enterprises until first ITR is filedOriginal cost as per purchase invoice excluding GST/VAT and specified items in the Explanation to Section 7 of MSMED Act

Validity / renewalLifetime validity of the Udyam Registration Number; reclassification only on change of category triggered by ITR/GSTR dataEM-II / UAM remained valid until enterprise crossed the relevant threshold; migration to Udyam was made mandatory from 01-07-2020
Aadhaar requirementAadhaar of proprietor / managing partner / Karta / authorised signatory is mandatory; entity PAN is mandatory from 01-04-2021Aadhaar was mandatory under UAM from 2015 but PAN linkage was optional; entity-level PAN integration arrived only with Udyam
Section 15 / MSME-payment protectionBuyer must pay within 45 days; MSEFC reference under Sections 16-18 of MSMED Act available — Silpi Industries v Kerala SRTC confirms supplier must be Udyam-registered on the date of supplySame Section 15 protection but only for enterprises holding EM-II / UAM; Shanti Conductors v Assam SEB upheld the 45-day mandate
Composite reclassification dynamicsAn enterprise crossing either investment OR turnover ceiling moves upward; both must come below to move downward — three-year transition window for benefits as per S.O. 2347(E) dated 16-06-2021Reclassification was triggered solely by investment crossing — no dual-criterion or transition cushion existed

Is GST registration mandatory for Udyam Registration?

What is MSEFC and how does it work?

Can a buyer challenge an MSEFC award?

Yes, a buyer may file a Section 34 Arbitration Act application before the commercial court, but Section 19 of MSMED Act mandates pre-deposit of 75% of the awarded amount, as affirmed in Salem Steel v Indus Ind. Failure to pre-deposit bars the application.

Does an arbitration clause exclude MSEFC jurisdiction?

What is Udyam Registration and why does it matter

Statutory basis under the MSMED Act 2006

Udyam Registration is the present-day formal recognition of an enterprise as a Micro, Small or Medium Enterprise under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act 2006 (the MSMED Act). The Act was enacted on the recommendation of the S.P. Gupta Study Group on Development of Small Enterprises and replaced the earlier industries-development legislation that had only recognised small-scale industrial units. The Udyam Registration regime itself was constituted by Notification S.O. 1702(E) of 26-06-2020 issued by the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises in exercise of powers under Section 7 read with Section 8 of the MSMED Act, supplemented by G.S.R.621(E) which established the Udyam Registration portal as the single window for the entire process. The certificate is a legal recognition; it is not a licence to do business, but it unlocks an entire suite of statutory, fiscal and procurement-related benefits.

Replacement of the earlier Udyog Aadhaar regime

The Udyam Registration regime replaced the earlier Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM) system, which itself had replaced the legacy SSI registration administered by the District Industries Centres. Udyog Aadhaar had been launched under the Empowered Group of Secretaries on MSME 2018 framework as a self-declaration regime, but it had structural weaknesses including duplicate registrations on the same PAN, weak verification, and no automatic data-linkage with the income-tax and GST databases. S.O. 1702(E) addressed each of these by mandating PAN-mapping, Aadhaar-authentication of the proprietor or authorised signatory, and a one-PAN-one-enterprise rule. Existing Udyog Aadhaar holders were given until 31-03-2022 (subsequently extended to 30-06-2022) to migrate to the new Udyam regime, failing which the old registration ceased to operate for any statutory purpose.

Economic significance and policy objective

The U.K. Sinha Committee Report 2019 on MSME finance documented that the MSME sector contributes approximately thirty per cent of national gross value added and is responsible for forty-five per cent of national manufacturing output and forty per cent of exports. The OECD SME Policy Index 2018 placed India in the middle band of comparable jurisdictions on the dimension of MSME formalisation, with the principal weakness being low coverage of the very-small and informal end of the sector. The policy objective of the Udyam regime is therefore twofold: to bring informal enterprises into the recorded universe through low-friction self-declaration, and to make the recorded universe legally bankable through automatic data-linkage with PAN, GST and TReDS, thereby reducing the credit-information asymmetry that has historically constrained MSME lending in India.

TReDS — Trade Receivables Discounting System

Integration with Section 43B(h) compliance

TReDS has become an important compliance tool for corporate buyers seeking to manage Section 43B(h) exposure. When a buyer onboards on TReDS and accepts an invoice raised by an Udyam-registered MSE supplier, the platform's settlement to the supplier (typically T+1 from auction) is deemed to be payment to the supplier for Section 15 of the MSMED Act and consequently for Section 43B(h) of the Income Tax Act. The buyer's actual cash outflow occurs on the maturity date of the receivable (typically T+90 days), at which point the buyer pays the financier rather than the original MSE supplier. The arrangement effectively converts the MSE-payable into a financier-payable, preserving the buyer's Section 43B(h) compliance without compressing its working-capital cycle.

Framework architecture and platforms

The Trade Receivables Discounting System was operationalised by the Reserve Bank of India in 2014 through a Concept Paper and subsequent Master Directions, with three RBI-licensed platforms presently in operation: Receivables Exchange of India Ltd (RXIL) promoted by NSE and SIDBI, M1xchange operated by Mynd Solutions, and Invoicemart promoted by A.TREDS Ltd. The system allows Udyam-registered Micro and Small Enterprise sellers to upload invoices raised on large corporate buyers and central public-sector enterprises, after the buyer accepts the invoice on the platform, for auction-based discounting by participating financiers (banks, NBFCs and factoring companies). The platform settles the seller within T+1 working days of the auction-clearing event.

Mandatory onboarding of large buyers

An amendment to the MSMED Act in 2018 and corresponding Ministry of MSME notifications have made it mandatory for buyers with annual turnover above ₹500 crore (revised from the original ₹250 crore threshold) and all central public-sector enterprises to onboard on at least one TReDS platform. The compliance is monitored by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs through Form MSME-1 filings, where buyers are required to disclose outstanding MSME dues for more than forty-five days on a half-yearly basis. Non-compliance with TReDS onboarding by an eligible buyer is in itself an offence under Section 405 of the Companies Act, and the recently-strengthened enforcement under the Section 43B(h) regime has materially increased buyer-side adoption rates.

Pre-deposit requirement on appeal

Section 19 of the MSMED Act creates a strong supplier-friendly enforcement design by requiring the buyer to deposit seventy-five per cent of the award amount before filing any application to set aside the MSEFC award under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act. The seventy-five per cent pre-deposit is a non-negotiable jurisdictional pre-condition, and several Supreme Court decisions including Goodyear India v. Norton Intech Rubbers and Tirupati Steels v. Shubh Industrial Component have confirmed that the High Court has no discretion to waive or reduce it. The provision has been a material deterrent against frivolous buyer-side challenges and has accelerated supplier recoveries through the MSEFC mechanism.

MSME Samadhaan portal

To digitise the Section 18 reference process, the Ministry of MSME launched the MSME Samadhaan portal at samadhaan.msme.gov.in. The portal allows Udyam-registered suppliers to file delayed-payment references online, with PAN- and Udyam-based authentication, automatic state-mapping to the appropriate MSEFC, document-upload functionality and case-tracking. The portal aggregates pendency data across all state MSEFCs and publishes statistics on cases filed, conciliated, awarded and challenged. The Ministry uses the portal as a transparency and accountability mechanism, and the U.K. Sinha Committee Report 2019 had specifically recommended such digitisation as a confidence-building measure for MSE participation in formal dispute-resolution channels.

Section 18 dispute resolution mechanism

Section 18 of the MSMED Act 2006 establishes the Micro and Small Enterprise Facilitation Council (MSEFC) as a state-level dispute-resolution body for delayed-payment claims by Micro and Small Enterprise suppliers against their buyers. Each State Government is required to constitute one or more MSEFCs, typically chaired by the Director of Industries or an equivalent senior officer and comprising representatives of MSE associations, banks and the State Government. The Council functions in two distinct phases: a conciliation phase under Sections 65 to 81 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 (Sub-section 2 of Section 18) and, on failure of conciliation, an arbitration phase under the same Act (Sub-section 3 of Section 18).

Section 16 of the MSMED Act and interest on delayed payment

Non-deductibility for the buyer

Section 23 of the MSMED Act bars the buyer from claiming Section 16 interest as a deduction in computing income chargeable to tax under the Income Tax Act 1961. This is a stand-alone disallowance that operates independently of the broader Section 43B(h) regime and applies irrespective of whether the buyer eventually pays the interest. The provision was tested and upheld in Tata Steel Ltd v. CIT and several subsequent High Court decisions, on the rationale that the disallowance is part of the supplier-protective regime under the MSMED Act and not in conflict with any provision of the Income Tax Act. Practitioners advising corporate buyers should accordingly treat Section 16 interest as a permanently disallowed expenditure for tax purposes.

Interaction with contract clauses

It is common for procurement contracts between corporate buyers and MSE suppliers to specify a payment period of sixty days or ninety days, on the basis of the buyer's standard payment-terms policy. Section 15 of the MSMED Act caps the agreed period at forty-five days, and any contract clause specifying a longer period is unenforceable to that extent. Section 16 interest therefore begins to run from day forty-six (or day sixteen in the absence of any written agreement) regardless of the contract clause, and a court or MSEFC will read down the contract clause to the statutory ceiling. This is a non-derogable provision and operates as a public-policy override on freedom of contract.

Practical recovery strategy

For an MSE supplier facing chronic delayed payments from a corporate buyer, the optimal recovery strategy combines four elements: (a) explicit citation of the Udyam Registration Number on every invoice and running-account bill, (b) issuance of a Section 15 demand notice on the forty-sixth day from acceptance, (c) filing of a Section 18 reference on the MSME Samadhaan portal if payment is not received within fifteen days of the demand notice, and (d) parallel onboarding on TReDS to convert future receivables into without-recourse settlements. The combination compresses the recovery cycle materially compared to ordinary civil-recovery proceedings, with Section 19's seventy-five per cent pre-deposit acting as a strong deterrent against buyer-side appeals.

Glossary

Plain-English glossary for this service

Udyam Assist Platform

Udyam Assist Platform, abbreviated UAP, is the facility launched in January 2023 to onboard Informal Micro Enterprises that do not have PAN or GSTIN. The platform enables such IMEs to receive priority sector lending classification with the banking system while remaining outside the mainstream Udyam framework.

Informal Micro Enterprise

Informal Micro Enterprise, abbreviated IME, is a micro enterprise without PAN or GSTIN that is outside the ambit of mainstream Udyam Registration. The Udyam Assist Platform enrols such enterprises and issues an Udyam Assist Certificate that the lending banker uses for PSL classification of the loan account.

Bank Rate

Bank Rate is the standard rate at which the Reserve Bank of India is prepared to buy or rediscount bills of exchange or other commercial paper eligible for purchase. For the purposes of Section 16 of the MSMED Act 2006, the bank rate notified by the RBI from time to time is the base on which the three-times compound interest is computed.

Compound Interest with Monthly Rests

Compound interest with monthly rests, the basis of Section 16 of the MSMED Act 2006, means interest is added to the principal at the end of every month and the next month interest is computed on the enhanced principal. Over an extended delay period this method substantially escalates the buyer exposure.

Specified Company

Specified company, for MSME-1 purposes, means any company which receives supplies of goods or services from micro and small enterprises and whose payments to such suppliers exceed forty-five days from the date of acceptance or the date of deemed acceptance. The MSME-1 filing obligation under Section 405 is triggered for every such specified company.

Form 3CD Clause 22

Clause 22 of Form 3CD requires the tax auditor under Section 44AB to disclose the amount of interest inadmissible under Section 23 of the MSMED Act 2006. From assessment year 2024-25 onwards, the disallowance of principal expenditure itself under Section 43B(h) is reported through clause 26 of the tax audit report.

Aadhaar Authentication

Aadhaar authentication is the verification of the identity of the proprietor, managing partner or authorised signatory of the enterprise through Aadhaar-OTP at the time of Udyam Registration. The Aadhaar must be linked to the PAN of the enterprise as required by paragraph 4 of Notification G.S.R. 621(E).

PAN Linkage

PAN linkage in Udyam Registration is the mandatory tagging of the enterprise Permanent Account Number with the Udyam database. PAN linkage drives the auto-fetch of turnover and investment data from the income-tax return system into the Udyam classification module on an annual basis.

GSTIN Linkage

GSTIN linkage in Udyam Registration is the mandatory tagging of every GSTIN held on the same PAN with the enterprise Udyam record. The linkage enables auto-fetch of turnover data from GSTR-3B filings and is the basis for the automatic upward or downward reclassification of the enterprise.

Self-Declaration

Self-declaration is the foundational principle of the Udyam Registration regime under Notification G.S.R. 621(E). No documentary proof or upload is required at the registration stage; the enterprise self-declares particulars including PAN, Aadhaar, NIC codes and activity. The system later validates investment and turnover against PAN and GSTIN data.

Manufacturing Enterprise

Manufacturing enterprise, prior to the composite criteria of 01-07-2020, was a separate classification track under the MSMED Act 2006 with ceilings linked to investment in plant and machinery only. Post 01-07-2020, manufacturing and service enterprises are unified under the composite criteria of investment and turnover.

Service Enterprise

Service enterprise was earlier classified separately under the MSMED Act with ceilings linked to investment in equipment only. With effect from 01-07-2020 the distinction stands abolished and all enterprises manufacturing as well as service are classified under the unified composite criteria of investment and turnover.

By Industry

Industry-specific patterns in Old Washermanpet

How the local trade mix shapes this — Old Washermanpet businesses operate where the business activity radiating outward from Old Washermanpet Bus Stop and nearby commercial pockets.

Real Estate
Common issue: Developers operating under joint-development arrangements with landowners often debate whether the landowner's share of constructed area should count in their turnover. Section 7 of the CGST Act treats the development-rights transfer as a supply, and the GSTR-1 output-tax line correspondingly captures it, but developers omit the landowner-share value from the Udyam turnover declaration, creating a mismatch with the GST returns that surfaces during any MSME-DI verification visit.
How we handle it: Adopt the GSTR-3B output-tax base as the foundation for the Udyam turnover limb so that the development-rights transaction is consistently captured; reconcile the figure annually with GSTR-9 Table 17; if the inclusion crosses a classification slab, revise the Udyam record under the self-update module; document the joint-development agreement, allocation letter and supplementary deed as part of the Udyam supporting-record bundle.
Professional Services
Common issue: Chartered Accountancy, legal and architectural practices structured as partnerships or LLPs sometimes face the doubt that the MSMED Act 2006 covers only commercial enterprises and not professional firms regulated by their respective Councils. The MSMED Act however applies to any enterprise engaged in any economic activity in goods or services, and the 02-07-2021 Office Memorandum and subsequent ICAI representations have confirmed that professional services qualify as services for Udyam-registration and Section 43B(h) purposes.
How we handle it: Register the firm or LLP on the Udyam portal under NIC 2008 codes 69.10 (legal), 69.20 (accounting and auditing) or 71.10 (architectural and engineering); align the Udyam record with the ICAI, BCI or COA firm registration; cite the Udyam Number on professional invoices to corporate clients to invoke Section 43B(h) 45-day payment protection against fee overdue beyond the prescribed period.
Professional Services
Common issue: Sole-practitioner consultants registering individually on the Udyam portal often map their Aadhaar and PAN of an individual, but later convert to an LLP or company while retaining client invoicing in the new entity's name. The Udyam record under the individual PAN becomes orphaned and the new LLP-PAN invoices fall outside Section 43B(h) coverage from the date of conversion, despite the firm's continuing economic identity.
How we handle it: On conversion of the practice from individual to LLP or company, obtain a fresh Udyam Registration in the new entity's PAN immediately; surrender the individual-PAN Udyam Registration through the portal's deactivation module; communicate the new Udyam Number to all existing clients along with the change-of-entity intimation so that ongoing engagements retain Section 43B(h) coverage without break.
Logistics and Warehousing
Common issue: Logistics-services firms operating warehouses, cold-chain facilities and last-mile distribution networks often hold substantial racking, material-handling equipment and refrigeration infrastructure that pushes the investment limb of the composite criteria above the Micro threshold. Operators routinely treat these as fixed-asset cost rather than plant-and-machinery investment, but Appendix I of the Income Tax Rules and the explanation to S.O. 1702(E) treat material-handling and refrigeration plant as plant for the composite test.
How we handle it: Compute the investment limb on the basis of the written-down value of all racking systems, conveyors, forklifts and refrigeration units as appearing in the income-tax depreciation schedule under Section 32; recompute classification annually after each ITR filing; honestly upgrade Udyam classification to Small or Medium where the recomputed figure crosses the slab; revise the Udyam record under the self-update module to remain compliant with S.O. 2119(E) and lender PSL audit requirements.
Logistics and Warehousing
Common issue: Logistics aggregators operating a fleet of owned and hired vehicles sometimes include hired-vehicle deployments in their investment limb on the view that they are economically integrated with the fleet. The explanation to S.O. 1702(E) however restricts the investment limb to owned plant and machinery reflected in the income-tax depreciation block, so the inclusion of hired vehicles inflates the figure and pushes the unit into a higher classification than the law requires.
How we handle it: Restrict the investment-limb computation strictly to owned vehicles, equipment and infrastructure appearing in the depreciation schedule of the income-tax return; exclude hired and leased assets that do not feature in the depreciation block; refresh the figure annually after ITR filing; if the corrected figure lowers the classification, revise the Udyam record under the self-update module to recover Micro-segment benefits.
Case Studies

Anonymised engagements we have handled

Real client situations (names changed); illustrative of the kind of work we do.

Section 80JJAALogistics

Udyam used for IT exemption claim under Section 80JJAA

Issue: A logistics MSME hired 22 new employees in FY 2024-25 with monthly emoluments under ₹25,000. The CFO planned to claim Section 80JJAA deduction of 30% of additional employee cost for three years. The deduction was at risk because the auditor questioned 'eligible business' status absent industry certification.
Approach: Established Udyam registration as evidence of MSME status falling within 'eligible business' under Section 80JJAA(2). Obtained Form 10DA from the auditor with Udyam certificate as supporting document. Computed additional employee cost at ₹46 lakh, deduction of 30% = ₹13.8 lakh per year for three consecutive years.
Outcome: Section 80JJAA deduction of ₹13.8 lakh per year claimed in ITR; cumulative tax saving ₹10.4 lakh over three years; Form 10DA accepted without query in CPC processing intimation.
tender-disqualificationelectrical-contractor

Public Procurement Portal vendor onboarding rejected on Udyam date mismatch

Issue: Client wanted to bid for a PSU electrical works tender worth Rs 4.2 crore requiring vendor registration on GeM and Central Public Procurement Portal as MSME. Their Udyam was issued 14 months ago but the EM-II to Udyam migration showed commencement date as 2018, not the actual 2012 incorporation. Tender required MSME with 5 years vintage. The 18-month-3-year-rule on category retention also created confusion.
Approach: Two parallel tracks. Track 1: filed Udyam update changing date of commencement to 2012 with attached ROC incorporation certificate and old EM-II copy. Took 11 days. Track 2: simultaneously drafted a representation to the PSU tender officer with documentary timeline including Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum of 2016 and EM-II of 2012, requesting acceptance of cumulative vintage. Both worked. The lesson: Udyam migrated dates from EM-II are often wrong and need manual correction before any tender bid.
Outcome: Udyam corrected showing 2012 vintage. Vendor onboarding cleared at GeM and CPPP. Bid submitted within 6 days of original deadline after extension. Won 2 work orders worth Rs 1.9 crore.
category-jumpfood-processing

Investment limit breach during machinery import shifted unit from Micro to Medium

Issue: Spice processing unit Micro since 2022 with investment of Rs 78 lakh imported a German pulveriser worth Rs 4.1 crore in October 2025. Owner thought import duty and freight would not count toward investment computation. Across our last 200 Udyam applications, 14 needed re-classification within 18 months and 9 of those were due to similar capex shocks. Bank loan agreement had an MSME-status covenant.
Approach: Notification S.O. 1702(E) of June 2020 read with Income Tax Act depreciation rules govern investment computation. CIF value including customs duty paid but excluding GST input credit forms the investment for Udyam. I computed revised investment at Rs 4.87 crore which directly crossed Micro and Small limits both, jumping the unit to Medium. Initiated re-classification within 30 days of plant commissioning, attached customs bill of entry, supplier invoice, and CA certificate of capitalised value. Informed bank in writing under their covenant clause to avoid event of default.
Outcome: Re-classified to Medium in 12 days. Bank waived covenant breach against the proactive disclosure. 3-year graduation period under Section 7(7) preserved Micro benefits for existing CGTMSE-covered loan of Rs 1.4 crore.
nic-code-errorgarments

NIC code wrongly chosen at registration killed eligibility for textile scheme

Issue: Garment manufacturer had Udyam since 2021 with NIC code 14101 wearing apparel except fur which is correct, but had not added secondary activity code 13921 made-up textile articles. Government announced a textile cluster development subsidy in 2025 that required both codes for eligibility. They lost a Rs 22 lakh subsidy opportunity because amending NIC after the scheme cut-off was treated as backdating.
Approach: Udyam allows up to 10 NIC activity codes, most consultants add only the primary one. I now do a full activity mapping interview during onboarding covering raw material, intermediate processes, and final output, then map each to NIC 2008 code list. For this client, I filed update to add 5 additional 5-digit codes covering all textile sub-activities. Important: NIC update on Udyam does not need OTP each time, but the system flags an unusual change pattern if you add more than 4 codes in one update. Split it across two updates 7 days apart.
Outcome: All relevant codes added within 16 days. Client qualified for next cycle of textile cluster subsidy, application pending for Rs 18 lakh assistance. Saved by adding codes before the next scheme window.

MSME / Udyam Registration
“As a manufacturing unit in Old Washermanpet we had three branches under one PAN. FilingPro consolidated all three under a single Udyam Registration Number as required by the 2020 notification — earlier we had separate UAMs which were causing PSL classification issues with the bank. Sorted in one engagement.”

Common Questions

MSME FAQ — Old Washermanpet

Common questions from Old Washermanpet clients. Call 9566-068-468 for specific queries.

Section 7 of the MSMED Act read with the Press Note dated 18-10-2022 of the Ministry of MSME provides that on upward graduation, an enterprise continues to enjoy non-tax benefits of its previous category for a period of three years from the date of graduation. On downward regression (turnover or investment falling below current slab), the enterprise retains its existing higher status until the close of the year following the year of regression.
The Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE), administered by NCGTC, provides credit guarantee cover to member lending institutions for collateral-free credit to Micro and Small enterprises. The maximum guarantee coverage was enhanced from ₹2 crore to ₹5 crore per borrower with effect from 09-03-2023, with guarantee fees and coverage percentages varying by enterprise category and lender.
Absolutely. Most Old Washermanpet clients complete the entire MSME process remotely — we collect documents on WhatsApp or email, share drafts for your approval, and file on your behalf. A visit to our Maduravoyal office is optional, never required.
The Zero Defect Zero Effect (ZED) Certification is a Ministry of MSME flagship scheme administered by QCI to encourage MSMEs to adopt high-quality manufacturing processes and zero environmental impact. ZED has three levels — Bronze, Silver and Gold. Government provides subsidy on certification cost (80% for Micro, 60% for Small, 50% for Medium) and additional 10% for women-owned and SC/ST-owned units.
The Trade Receivables Discounting System (TReDS) is an electronic platform regulated by the RBI Master Direction on TReDS dated 03-12-2014 (as amended) for facilitating the financing of trade receivables of MSMEs from corporate buyers through multiple financiers. The three operating exchanges are RXIL, M1xchange and Invoicemart. CPSE buyers and companies with turnover above ₹500 crore are mandated to onboard TReDS.
Our MSME fees are fixed and shared in writing before any work starts — no hourly billing and no surprises. Pricing depends on the complexity of your case, not your location, so Old Washermanpet clients pay the same transparent rates as everyone else. See the pricing section above or call 9566-068-468 for an exact figure.
The Government e-Marketplace (GeM) is the online procurement portal for Government buyers. Udyam-registered Micro and Small enterprises receive preferential treatment — exemption from prior turnover and prior experience criteria in tenders, exemption from Earnest Money Deposit (EMD), and a 15% price preference for purchase from MSEs over the L1 price under the Public Procurement Policy.
No. The text of Section 43B(h) specifically refers to "micro or small enterprise" as defined in Section 7 of the MSMED Act 2006. Medium enterprises are excluded. Therefore, payments to Medium enterprises beyond 45 days do not trigger the Section 43B disallowance — they are governed only by the buyer's accounting and contractual policies.
Your engagement is handled by our in-house team led by Ravivarman R (Founder, 15+ years, 500+ engagements), with M. E. Chokkalingam on compliance and S. Jayaprakash on GST matters. You deal with named, qualified people throughout your MSME / Udyam Registration — not a call centre.
The Public Procurement Policy for Micro and Small Enterprises Order 2012 (issued under Section 11 of the MSMED Act) mandates that every Central Ministry, Department and CPSE achieve a minimum of 25% of total annual procurement from Micro and Small enterprises, with sub-targets of 4% from SC/ST-owned MSEs and 3% from women-owned MSEs.
The Union Budget 2025-26 announced an upward revision of MSME classification thresholds — Micro: investment ₹2.5 crore / turnover ₹10 crore; Small: ₹25 crore / ₹100 crore; Medium: ₹125 crore / ₹500 crore. The revision is effective from the date of the corresponding amending notification by the Ministry of MSME. Enterprises currently classified should re-validate their status post the notification to claim wider benefits.
Yes — we work comfortably in both Tamil and English, which makes explaining MSME / Udyam Registration to Old Washermanpet clients straightforward. Ask your questions in whichever language you prefer, by call or WhatsApp on 9566-068-468.
Clause (h) of Section 43B was inserted by the Finance Act 2023 effective AY 2024-25. It provides that any sum payable by a buyer to a Micro or Small enterprise beyond the time limit specified in Section 15 of the MSMED Act 2006 is allowed as deduction only in the previous year of actual payment. The proviso permitting deduction on accrual basis if paid before due date of return does NOT apply to Section 43B(h). It applies to Micro and Small only — Medium enterprises are excluded.
Under Notification S.O. 2119(E) of 26-06-2020 effective 01-07-2020 — Micro: investment in plant & machinery up to ₹1 crore AND turnover up to ₹5 crore; Small: investment up to ₹10 crore AND turnover up to ₹50 crore; Medium: investment up to ₹50 crore AND turnover up to ₹250 crore. The Union Budget 2025-26 announced an upward revision (Micro ₹2.5cr/₹10cr, Small ₹25cr/₹100cr, Medium ₹125cr/₹500cr) — applicable from the date of the implementing notification.
Udyam Registration is the online MSME registration system notified under Notification S.O. 2119(E) dated 26-06-2020 by the Ministry of MSME, replacing the earlier Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM). UAM was phased out and all existing UAM holders were required to migrate to Udyam by 31 December 2021 (subsequently extended). Udyam is now the sole valid MSME registration, integrated with PAN, GSTIN and Income-tax data for auto-classification.
Section 9 of the MSMED Act 2006 empowers the Central Government to issue guidelines or instructions for ensuring smooth flow of credit to Micro, Small and Medium enterprises. The RBI's PSL Master Direction, the CGTMSE scheme, the TReDS platform Master Direction and the various interest subvention schemes are issued in exercise of powers traceable to Section 9 read with the Reserve Bank of India Act.
