Abstract

After the agricultural sector, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) play a vital role in the development of India. Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) are contributing about 25% of the country's GDP (gross domestic product) from service activities and 33% to the manufacturing amount produced for India. Micro, small, and medium (MSME) entrepreneurs have been highly impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. Due to lockdown, MSME sector who could not export, nor get their ancillary parts, had problems with transportation leading to the inability to do marketing. Most important migrant laborers rushed to their villages or natives. Hence, without labor or workforce, the assembly lines stopped. In this chapter, an attempt is made to identify the challenges of the MSME sector and deal with the efforts often taken to restart them.
