Abstract

The MSME sector in India has emerged as one of the worst affected segments due to COVID-19 pandemic. This chapter – drawing on emerging literature including Government policy documents, reports and insights from survey-based studies – discusses the effectiveness of Government policies and schemes in terms of awareness and access and explores possible coping strategies adopted by the MSMEs towards reviving the sector. Our analysis suggests that the MSME sector has witnessed varying degrees of setbacks and a preponderant majority of MSME units did not get any benefits from wide array of Government schemes and programs. These units adopted various coping strategies including scaling down of business, diversifying product and services;embracing new marketing strategy;rescheduling bank loans;drawing on savings and accessing support from informal sources to revive their operation. This chapter calls for a comprehensive and policy-sensitive database to understand the exact needs and problems of the MSME sector, reframing of Government schemes, capacity building and digital support for facilitating MSMEs access to new and innovative marketing options and strengthening of social welfare schemes. © 2022 selection and editorial matter, Indranil De, Soumyadip Chattopadhyay, Hippu Salk Kristle Nathan, and Kingshuk Sarkar;individual chapters, the contributors.
印度的中小微企业在锁定和解锁时期
由于COVID-19大流行,印度的中小微企业部门已成为受影响最严重的部门之一。本章借鉴了新兴文献,包括政府政策文件、报告和基于调查的研究的见解,讨论了政府在认识和获取方面的政策和计划的有效性,并探讨了中小微企业为振兴该行业而采取的可能的应对策略。我们的分析表明,中小微企业部门经历了不同程度的挫折,绝大多数中小微企业没有从政府的各种计划和计划中获得任何好处。这些单位采取了各种应对策略,包括缩减业务规模、使产品和服务多样化、采用新的营销策略、重新安排银行贷款、利用储蓄和获得非正式来源的支持以恢复其业务。本章呼吁建立一个全面和对政策敏感的数据库,以了解中小微企业部门的确切需求和问题,重新制定政府计划,能力建设和数字支持,以促进中小微企业获得新的和创新的营销选择,并加强社会福利计划。©2022选择和编辑事项,Indranil De, Soumyadip Chattopadhyay, Hippu Salk Kristle Nathan和Kingshuk Sarkar;个人章节,贡献者。
