MSMEs in India constitute more than 80% of total number of industrial enterprises and form the backbone of industrial development in India by it’s remarkable contribution to the Indian economy. However, the availability of timely, adequate & low cost credit is limiting the ability of Indian MSMEs in accessing the new technologies, upgrading the manufacturing facilities, expansion and enhancing of newer markets and maintaining the competitiveness.
While announcing the Policy Package for Stepping up Credit to the SMEs, the Finance Minister, Mr P Chidambaram in the Parliament on August 10th, 2005, had mentioned the objective to double the flow of credit from Rs.67,600 crore in 2004-05 to Rs.135,200 crore to the SME sector by 2009-10, i.e. within a period of 5 years.
It is with this background and more than half way through the five year period, CII proposes to organize an Interactive Session with the senior officials of Reserve Bank of India at 1400 hrs on 10th July 2008 at Hotel Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Apollo Bunder, Colaba, Mumbai.
