MSMEs account for 35.4% of India's manufacturing output and nearly half of its exports. We help manufacturers, from family-run units to growing exporters, strengthen productivity, compliance, finance and market access so that rising demand turns into durable, financeable growth.
Built on small factories, scaling into global chains.
India's manufacturing base is broad and largely small-scale. MSMEs contribute 30.1% of GDP, 35.4% of manufacturing output and 45.7% of exports, operating in clusters that range from textiles in Tiruppur and Surat to engineering in Pune and Ludhiana. Medium- and high-technology industries now generate 46.3% of manufacturing value added, a sign of steady upgrading.
Policy has turned decisively towards making in India. Production-linked incentive schemes across 14 sectors have drawn about ₹1.76 lakh crore of realised investment and over 12 lakh jobs. Manufacturing value added has grown at roughly 10.9% a year between 2022-23 and 2025-26. For smaller manufacturers, the opportunity lies in joining these supply chains, which demands quality systems, compliance and finance that many have not yet built.
MSMEs carry an outsized share of India's industrial and export economy. Buyers, lenders and regulators are asking more of them every year.
MSMEs span manufacturing and services; the manufacturing share refers to output.
Long credit cycles from buyers, advance payments to suppliers and inventory build-up tie up cash exactly when an order book is growing.
Quality Control Orders, ZED certification and buyer audits increasingly decide who gets the order, and many units still run on informal systems.
GST, the new Labour Codes, environmental consents and factory safety rules add up. Small teams struggle to keep records audit-ready.
Older machinery, manual planning and little shop-floor data keep costs high and lead times unpredictable.
Many units sell to one or two anchor customers or work on job-work rates, leaving little pricing power or margin to reinvest.
Costing by product and customer, capacity utilisation and cash conversion, so decisions on pricing, product mix and investment rest on real numbers.
Clean accounts, projections and documentation for term loans, working-capital limits, credit-guarantee cover and scheme support.
Simple, owned systems for GST, labour, environmental and quality compliance that stand up to buyer and lender audits.
From job-work to own products, from domestic to export, from one buyer to many, with the brand and channel work each step needs.
Manufacturing engagements usually start with financial solutions and structuring, then move to strategy and market development.
In-depth briefs on the manufacturing niches we focus on: landscape, regulation, opportunities and how we help.
A practical brief on one of India's largest employers: its scale and structure, the policies reshaping it, the compliance that governs it, and the levers that move a textile or apparel business from low-margin job-work to a durable, financeable brand.

Read the niche briefHeadline indicators for India's manufacturing economy.
Mostly micro, small and medium enterprises (family-run units, growing contract manufacturers and exporters) along with clusters and the associations that support them.
Most engagements begin with Financial Solutions (working capital, credit and scheme support) and Organisational Structuring for compliance and governance. Consulting & Strategy and branding follow when the business is ready to move up the value chain.
We assess eligibility, prepare applications and set up the records and reporting each scheme requires. Whether that is a production-linked incentive, a credit-guarantee scheme, ZED certification support or a state industrial policy.
Yes. Our in-depth briefs on Textiles & Apparel and Food Processing cover each sector in detail.
