Questionnaire regarding challenges faced by MSME’s

FISME, the apex body for Micro and Small and Medium Enterprises in India, has been asked by the Planning Commission to highlight the challenges of MSME’s. The inputs from FISME will help the Planning Commission to include ways to redress the genuine challenges of MSME’s in the Approach Paper for the 12th Five Year Plan, a treatise that can be described as the skeleton of the next i.e. 12th Five Year Plan.

FISME has identified the following challenges. We would like to have your opinion on these challenges and more importantly, we would like you to recommend ways to resolve these challenges. Since the list is non-exhaustive, we have included an additional field where you can mention other challenges which are outside the realm of the mentioned challenges.
