Debt Recovery for MSMEs
Empowering MSMEs: Swift and Effective Debt Recovery with dCorpo Legal
Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) form the foundation of India’s economy, contributing an impressive 30% to the nation’s GDP each year. Comprising a diverse array of manufacturers and service providers, India is home to over 4 crore registered MSMEs (as per the Udyam Portal, as of March 31, 2024). These businesses are vital drivers of economic growth and employment across the country.
Despite their significant contributions, MSMEs frequently face challenges in receiving timely payments for their goods and services. Delays or outright refusal to pay their rightful dues can lead to serious cash flow issues, disrupting working capital and hindering daily operations. This financial strain can cripple businesses, affecting their ability to meet obligations, pay employees, and invest in growth.
However, under the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act of 2006, MSMEs have strong legal recourse. The Act mandates that if an MSME is not paid within 45 days of delivering goods or services, the business can seek redress by filing a claim with the Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council (MSEFC) through the MSME Samadhaan Portal.
The MSEFC is a specialized quasi-judicial body focused on resolving payment disputes involving MSMEs. Its fast-track approach ensures that businesses receive the support they need to recover outstanding payments, enabling them to maintain smooth operations and achieve financial stability.
