MSMEs, as ancillary units, are complementary to large industries and this sector contributes enormously to the socio-economic development of the country. New segmentation is in the direction of promoting growth and development of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) ensuring the existing price range and affording discounts to Micro industries for facilitating the growth of the Indian economy.
“We at GMDC value our customers in MSMEs such as Textiles, Chemicals, Ceramics, and others.
