Some of the programmes launched during the year include Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM) The Ministry in September-2015 under the MSME Development Act, 2006 has notified that every MSME unit shall file Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM). This is a path breaking step to promote ease-of-doing-business for MSMEs in India as the UAM replaces the filing of Entrepreneurs Memorandum (EM part-I II) with the respective States/UTs. While some of the States/UTs had made the process online, either by themselves or through the portal created by this Ministry, sever .....

The cumbersome filing of EM has now been dispensed with and the entrepreneurs in the MSME sector just need to file online, a simple one-page UAM on http://udyogaadhaar.gov.in to instantly get a unique Udyog Aadhaar Number (UAN). The information sought is on self-certification basis and no supporting documents are required at the time of online filing of UAM.

The UAM has emerged from the vision of Honorable Prime Minister of India shared with the Nation through Mann Ki Baat telecast on 03-10-2014 and the recommendations for Universalization of Registration in the Report of the Kamath Committee on Financial Architecture of MSME sector.

Framework for Revival and Rehabilitation of MSMEs The existing mechanism for addressing revival, rehabilitation and exit of small enterprises is very weak in the country.

Pending a detailed revision of the legal framework for resolving insolvency/bankruptcy, there was a felt need for special dispensation for revival and exit of MSMEs. The MSMEs facing insolvency/bankruptcy need to be provided legal opportunities to revive their units. This could be through a scheme for re-organization and rehabilitation, which balances the interests of the creditors and debtors. a Framework for Revival and Rehabilitation of MSMEs has thus been notified in May-2015 under section 9 of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006.
