Start-Ups in MSMEs, particularly
in manufacturing can now look for vertical growth instead of horizontal growth
with the MSME Ministry revising the definition of plant and machinery to
include all such equipment owned by the same owner(s) across the districts and
country to be reckoned for classification of MSME under the MSME Development
Act 2006. In the long run this redefinition would do lot good to the sector.
The sector may witness in the short term more NPAs.
