Conclusion
Tamil Nadu is a leading state in the country in the MSME sector, both in
terms of its overall size and the varieties of products that it produces. It is
poised to achieve even greater heights in the years to come with a number of
initiatives already being implemented in the state to improve the ease of doing
business for the MSMEs. The Commissionerate of Industries and Commerce is
actively working with all the stakeholders in the MSME ecosystem in the state
to ensure that it is able to support the growth of the sector even further.
