What is a Small Scale Industry?
We measure any industry by its size and after which we decide which category the industry falls in for which we have to assess the labour and capital employed in it. Keeping in view the capital and labour, three parts have been done, which are as follows
Micro-industry
Micro-industry can be a small and easy-to-start industry than small-scale industry if you work in the service sector in such an industry. So your investment will be up to about 10 lakh rupees and if you work in the construction sector then you can read investing up to 25 lakhs. Similarly, the number of workers in it can be from 2 to 10.
Small scale industries
The small industry is a business with little more investment than the micro-industry if you work in the service sector. So you cannot invest more than 10 lakh to 2 crores in your entire business, if you invest more than this, then your industry will come from small industry to medium industry. And if you work in the construction sector, then you cannot invest more than 10 lakh to 2 crores in the entire business.
Medium industries
The medium industry is bigger than the small scale industry, if a small business whose total value increases from 2 crores to 10 crores, then it enters the medium industry. In this type of industry, you can invest from 2 crores to 5 crores for the service sector and if you are contributing in the construction work, then you can easily invest between 2 crores to 5 crores. Along with this, this class of all types of the industry also depends on its machinery and number of workers.
Gramin Small industry
Industries established in rural areas with less than 10 thousand population and with a fixed capital investment of fewer than 15 thousand rupees per artisan or worker in the land, building, machinery etc. are covered under village industry.
