MSME Registration for Wholly Owned Subsidiary of a Foreign Company

The wholly owned subsidiary of a foreign company, or for that matter, any company in India that has received FDI, is treated at par with any other company in India. Therefore, if the twin criteria of investment in the plant and machinery and annual turnover are met, then the wholly-owned subsidiary company of a foreign corporation can obtain MSME Udyam Registration.

Meaning or Definition of MSME (Updated)

Small businesses are the backbone of developing economies like India. These businesses operate on a smaller scale with limited capital. However, since they are primarily labour-intensive, their significance from the perspective of employment generation in the economy is quite huge. This is why the government aims to consistently nudge the growth of the MSME industry in India. The MSME stands for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises. These enterprises are categorised based on their annual turnover and investment in plant and machinery or equipment. The government of India has revised and effective 1st April 2025, the following are the criteria.

Revised MSME Classification Criteria (Effective 1st April 2025)

Enterprises TypeInvestment in plant and machinery or equipmentTurnover During the Previous FY
Micro Enterprises₹2.5 crore₹10 crore
Small Enterprises₹25 crore₹100 crore
Medium Enterprises₹125 crore₹500 crore

The MSME classification is based on the 'either/or' criterion, meaning an enterprise qualifies for a specific category by meeting either the investment or turnover threshold. It is crucial for MSMEs to regularly review their investment and turnover figures to ensure they remain within their designated category. Any change in these criteria necessitates an update to the MSME registration on the Udyam Registration Portal.

Important Note:

  • Calculation of Net Turnover : The Export Turnover is excluded from the overall turnover
  • Net Investment : For the calculation of the net investment of the MSME unit, the Investment made in Research, Pollution Control, and safety device installations are excluded

The MSME Udyam Registration process is quick, simple, online and straightforward. You can do the registration yourself by visiting https://udyamregistration.gov.in. We offer our paid professional services to help or assist you with advisory services so that you register as an MSME.

Step - 1

Determine the MSME Category.

The MSME Registration process is linked with the Income Tax Portal. Hence, if the applicant filed its ITR during the previous financial year, the turnover data and investment in plant and machinery will be automatically filled out. In case the applicant has not filed an Income Tax Return (ITR), then the MSME category (Micro, Small, or Medium) will be determined based on the turnover or investment details provided by the applicant on self-declaration.

Step - 2

Visit the MSME Portal & Verify Aadhar with OTP

The next step is to visit https://udyamregistration.gov.in/ and click on the appropriate link for new enterprises that are not yet registered as MSMEs. The Aadhar and the Name of the Entrepreneur are to be filled out on the next screen. The Adhar number will be verified using an OTP sent to the linked mobile number. Conversely, PAN will be verified using the Income Tax / GST database integrated with the portal.

Step - 3

Fill details in the MSME Udyam registration form

The applicant has to fill in the details of the business and entrepreneur, like name, address, type, and nature of the business activity, bank details, employee details, etc. The particulars so filled in the application form should be correct as per the requirement for error-free MSME registration. After filling in all the particulars, the form is then submitted using Aadhaar OTP-based authentication.

Step - 4

Issuance of MSME Registration Certificate

After the MSME Registration form is submitted, the concerned authorities carry out an in-depth examination at the MSME Ministry. Upon successful examination, the authorities will issue an MSME Registration Certificate With the MSME Registration Number mentioned on it.

Benefits of MSME Registration.

MSME Registration for small businesses is a boon as it offers many benefits assisting their growth and development.

Most of these initiatives offer MSMEs financial support during the initial operation stages. Here are some notable benefits.

Simultaneously, MSMEs can also onboard on the TReDS Platform, where the invoices of receivables are traded, through three available platforms: 1. www.invoicemart.com 2. www.m1xchange.com 3. www.rxil.in.

MSME Registration Renewal / Update

The Validity of the MSME Registration Certificate extends for a lifetime. There is no requirement for MSME Renewal at regular intervals. However, registered MSMEs must update the net turnover and investment limits every financial year on a self-declaration basis. The requirement for such an update is provided under the notification dated 26th July 2020. The annual update of the MSME Registration is necessary for the correct categorisation of the MSME, as the refreshed data from the Income Tax Portal concerning the turnover and the investment in plant and machinery is likely to change the type of the MSME.
