The Non-Corporate Small Business Sector

Non-Corporate Small Business Sector (NCSBS) is the economic foundation of India. It is perhaps one of the largest disaggregated business ecosystems in the world sustaining around 50 crore lives.The sector comprises of myriad of small manufacturing units, shopkeepers, fruits / vegetable vendors, truck & taxi operators, food-service units, repair shops, machine operators, small industries, artisans, food processors, street vendors and many others.Formal or institutional architecture has not been able to reach out to them to meet the financial requirements of this sector. They are largely self financed or rely on personal networks or moneylenders. Addressing this need will give a big boost to the economy otherwise this segment would remain unfunded and a portion of the productive labour force would remain unemployed.

Small business is big business. According to NSSO Survey (2013), there are 5.77 crore small business units, mostly individual proprietorship. Most of these 'own account enterprises' (OAE) are owned by people belonging to Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe or Other Backward Classes. They get very little credit, and that too mostly from non formal lenders, or friends and relatives. Providing access to institutional finance to such micro/small business units would turn them into strong instruments of GDP growth and also employment.
