Which of the following statements regarding small scale industries in India is Correct?
भारत में लघु उद्योगों के संबंध में निम्नलिखित में से कौन-सा कथन सही है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
They are classified based on capital investment in assest/ इन्हें परिसंपत्ति में पूंजी निवेश के आधार पर वर्गीकृत किया जाता है।
In India, Small Scale Industries (SSIs) or Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are primarily classified based on the capital investment in plant and machinery (for manufacturing units) or equipment (for service units). The classification helps in determining eligibility for various government schemes, subsidies, and benefits.
Important points:
-
Number of workers is not the main criterion; it is the investment in assets that matters.
-
Annual turnover is used in some updated definitions (MSME Act 2020), but historically, capital investment was the defining factor.
-
Export volume alone does not define SSIs.
भारत में लघु उद्योग (Small Scale Industries) या सूक्ष्म, लघु एवं मध्यम उद्यम (MSMEs) को मुख्य रूप से परिसंपत्ति में पूंजी निवेश के आधार पर वर्गीकृत किया जाता है – निर्माण इकाइयों के लिए संयंत्र और मशीनरी में, और सेवा इकाइयों के लिए उपकरण में।
मुख्य बिंदु:
-
कर्मचारियों की संख्या मुख्य मानदंड नहीं है; परिसंपत्ति में निवेश ही सबसे महत्वपूर्ण है।
-
कुछ नई परिभाषाओं (MSME Act 2020) में वार्षिक टर्नओवर भी देखा जाता है, लेकिन ऐतिहासिक रूप से पूंजी निवेश मुख्य आधार था।
-
केवल निर्यात मात्रा पर आधारित परिभाषा सही नहीं है।
Additional Fact / अतिरिक्त तथ्य:
-
Small scale industries contribute significantly to employment generation and export earnings in India.
-
MSMEs play a key role in rural and semi-urban development.
