Srinagar, Feb 14: According to a press statement, the Kashmir Small Scale Industrial Association (KSSIA) has demanded grant of extension in Udyam registration by existing industrial enterprises, while expressing uncertainty over the completion of the process by thousands of enterprises by 31st March. 

In a day long interactive session with the officers of the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME), KSSIA members apprised them of the several hurdles that are in the way of online registration, and said that the process was unlikely to be completed by March end. 

The members expressed their dismay over the silence maintained by the Industries and Commerce department over the issue, as, according to the statement, no awareness drive has so far been undertaken by the department to inform the enterprises that Udyam registration was mandatory for them post 1st April, 2021.

President KSSIA, Syed Fazal Illah while endorsing the apprehensions raised by the members of the association, asked the Central and UT government authorities to grant extension in the process of registration under Udyam, as well as clarifying some of the vital issues. 

"Whereas all those enterprises having an annual turnover of 40 lacs or less are exempted from filing of returns under GST, the online form does not accept them unless they furnish details of GST registration," he said.

“The government should also come up with the renewed role of DICs, which hitherto would take up the task of registering, or make changes in the approved activities of the units," he added. 

During the interaction, AD MSME, Suhail Allaqaband explained the process of registration with the Udyam Portal. 

He said that the Udyam portal had been established by GOI as a “single window system” after doing away with the authorization of all other online or offline systems or agencies hitherto entitled to do MSME registrations or undertaking any of the activity related to the process. 

He also informed the attendees that a five-day ‘management programme’ was being conducted by the Ministry of MSME at the Craft Development Institute from 1st of March, 2021. He sought the participation of the staff of enterprises in the programme, the statement added.
