"Over 1/2 of the INR 5.8L CR stimulus announced today focused on our #MSME sector. 40% of India’s 450 mn informal workers are employed with MSMEs. The recovery of this sector is central to our economic resurgence & the workers' well-being," @GhoshArunabha #AatmanirbharBharat 2/n

"The #MSME sector is also the backbone of India’s #energy transition, and a key source of industrial emissions," @GhoshArunabha.

"The clearing of government and CPSE dues to #MSMEs within 45 days is a critical step announced today by the Finance Minister," @tirtha_biswas.

"The Finance Minister’s announcements provide significant immediate relief to stressed #MSMEs and could enhance self-reliance within the sector in the long-run," Hemant Mallaya.

"Reclassification of #MSMEs definitions & recognising the distinct needs of the stressed, normal, and high growth potential enterprises would allow for a customised approach to address the challenges faced by each group,"
Hemant Mallaya.

“At INR 90,000 CR, the state-backed bailout for the #discoms is rather ominous. The terms are reminiscent of past schemes but are more reliant on tech (like digital payments, pre-paid meters),"@KarthikGanesan6
