Overview

Udyam registration is the government's registration for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). It is done online on the Udyam Registration portal using the owner's or authorised signatory's Aadhaar, with the enterprise's PAN and GSTIN where applicable. Investment and turnover figures are taken from the income tax and GST databases, and the enterprise is classified as micro, small or medium.

Since 1 April 2025 the classification limits are: micro up to ₹2.5 crore investment in plant and machinery or equipment and ₹10 crore turnover; small up to ₹25 crore and ₹100 crore; medium up to ₹125 crore and ₹500 crore. An enterprise must meet both limits for its category. The registration doesn't need renewal and comes with a certificate that has a dynamic QR code.

The government portal charges no fee. If you want, our team can file it for you, check the classification and update the registration when your details change.

Who needs it

  • Proprietors, firms, LLPs, companies and other enterprises in manufacturing or services
  • Businesses that want MSME benefits such as priority-sector lending and protection against delayed payments by buyers
  • Suppliers who want to participate in government procurement schemes for MSMEs

Documents required

What we usually ask for. Our team confirms the exact list for your case before anything is filed.

  • Aadhaar of the proprietor, managing partner, karta or authorised signatory (with the mobile number linked to it)
  • PAN of the enterprise
  • GSTIN, if the enterprise has one
  • Bank account details and the main business activity (NIC code)

How it works

  1. 1

    Check details

    We confirm the enterprise's PAN, GSTIN, activity and the person whose Aadhaar will be used.

  2. 2

    Aadhaar verification

    The application is verified with an OTP sent to the Aadhaar-linked mobile number, so you'll need to share the OTP when we file.

  3. 3

    Fill and submit

    We fill in the enterprise details, activity codes, employee count and bank details on the Udyam portal.

  4. 4

    Certificate

    The Udyam registration number and e-certificate are issued online; we send you a copy and explain the classification.

Typical timeline

The registration is completed online on the Udyam portal once the Aadhaar OTP is verified and the form is submitted. The government charges no fee for it.

Is Udyam registration free?
Yes. The Udyam portal states that registration is completely free and no documents need to be uploaded. If you hire us to do it, you pay only for our service, which we quote upfront.
Does Udyam registration need renewal?
No. It is permanent, but you should update it when details such as investment, turnover or activity change.
What if my business grows beyond the micro limits?
The classification is updated from the investment and turnover data linked to your PAN and GST. Moving up a category is normal and doesn't require a new registration.
Can traders register?
Retail and wholesale traders can register on Udyam for priority-sector lending purposes, as allowed by the Ministry of MSME's notifications.
