In India, there are more than 6 crore Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME). Hence, they are called as the backbone of the Indian Economic structure. However, this sector remains underdeveloped for long time due to accessibility of the limited resources, lack of awareness about alternate means of finance and growth strategy.

Furthermore, SMEs are generally ill-equipped to manage with investor due diligence requirements and at same time to comply with strict norms and regulations of government authorities. It is observed that SMEs are promoter driver and lack professional management and automation. This put promoter on the toes with involvement in day to day activities of the company while growth and exploring new orbit goes oversight.

Although government promotes the SME sectors through different means including tax reliefs, loans, social support and financial support so far, but for growth and strategic consultancy point of view a professional mentor or advisor are required. For the same there are management consultant, Investment bankers who plays substantial role to assist SMEs and improve their chance of success and scale.
