1.1. Preamble
1.1.1. Odisha – An introduction
1. Odisha located in the east of India, has a traditional past, a vibrant present and a large potential for MSME
industries. Prominent for its culture, tradition and architecture, the State is also a treasure trove for natural
resources. In addition, access to global markets, presence of qualified human resources, superior logistics,
robust infrastructure and a positive business environment makes Odisha a favored destination for
investors.
2. The Industry and Services sectors have emerged as main drivers of growth during the past decade. Odisha
economy exhibited an average annual growth rate of 8.82 percent during the 10th Plan period against a
target of 6.20 percent. The economy grew in real terms at the rate of 7.05 percent during the 11th Plan As
per the Odisha Economic Survey 2014-15, the state is set to grow at 8.78 percent.
3. Odisha is ranked first in total FDI proposals attracting investments of USD 15,400 million in the period of
January to December 2013 (18% of the overall share of FDI proposals in India). The exports from the State
were USD 2,960 million in 2013-14 which increased at 10 % CAGR between 2009-10 and 2013-14.
4. Odisha ranks highest in the country in terms of total value of mineral output. Odisha is the largest producer
of Chromite (98% share), Bauxite (59% share), Nickel (93% share), Graphite, Dolomite and Manganese,
fourth largest producer of Coal and fifth largest producer of iron-ore in India. Odisha has large reserves of
45,000 MT power grade coal deposits in Mahanadi Coal Field and Talcher Coal Field area. Odisha is the
home to some of the leading public sector enterprises like HAL, and private companies like Tata Steel,
Vedanta Aluminum, Aditya Birla, Jindal Steel etc . Odisha receives unprecedented investments in steel,
aluminum, power, refineries and port. This opportunity a perfect platform and presents a huge opportunity
for downstream and ancillary industries and for the MSME sector.
5. MSME sector has emerged as a highly vibrant and dynamic sector of the Indian economy over the last five
decades. MSMEs contribute to nearly 8% of the country’s GDP, 45% of the manufacturing output and 40%
of the exports. MSMEs provide the largest share of employment after agriculture and hence, development
of MSME sector can contribute enormously to the socio-economic development of the country. MSME
sector underscores entrepreneurship and innovation. Moreover, MSMEs are complementary to large
industries as ancillary units. Micro Small Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act, 2006 seeks to
facilitate the development of these enterprises, enhance their competitiveness and provides a legal
framework for recognition of both manufacturing and service entities in the concept of “enterprise”
6. The MSME sector in Odisha has made substantial contribution to the economic development in general and
generation of employment and contribution to the exports in particular and has positioned itself only next
to the agricultural sector in the State in terms of employment generation. MSME in Odisha has witnessed
an increasing trend in respect of number of MSME units set up, quantum of investment made and
employment generation over a period of time
7. The inherent strengths of the State of Odisha in terms of abundant natural resources, human resources and
an enterprise enabling policy need to be leveraged to realize the full potential of the Micro, Small & Medium
Enterprise Sector of the State. The new wave of industrialization being witnessed in Odisha today,
especially in the metal, power, cement, petrochemical, IT, tourism sector and the current growth in the
services sector provide enormous opportunity for the growth of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises in the
State.
8. The Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises play a major role in broad basing the industrial growth and
augmenting employment opportunities, revenue exports and economic growth. To develop the sector and
to address the specific requirements of MSME sector and drive their growth, Government of Odisha has
formulated the “Odisha MSME Development Policy, 2015”.
