Similar events that promote MSMEs of India to a larger market in India and abroad should

be conducted

The national production caters to only about half the national consumption across all

industries. Evidently this Industry has very challenging times ahead to bridge this demand-

supply gap. Such kind of events provides great opportunities for the industry.
