EXISTING SCHEME
A Market Development Assistance Scheme is currently operated by the
Ministry of Commerce with a view to encourage exporters (including
MSME exporters) to access and develop overseas markets. The scheme
offers funding for participation in international fairs, study tours
abroad, trade delegations, publicity, etc. Direct assistance under MDA
for small- scale units is given for individual sales-cum-study tours,
participation in fairs/exhibitions and publicity. SIDBI operates a
scheme of direct assistance for financing activities relating to
marketing of MSME products.
The Office of DC(MSME) has an existing scheme for participation in
international fairs, whereby MSME entrepreneurs are encouraged to
display their products at international exhibitions abroad. MSME-DO
provides exhibition space and shipment of exhibits ex-Mumbai free of
cost for this purpose.
PROPOSED SCHEME

development of MSMEs announced on 30th August 2000, it was decided
that the Small Industries Development Organisation should have a
Market Development Assistance (MDA) scheme similar to the one

that (i) MSME exporters need to be encouraged in their efforts at

for participation in international fairs will cover all activities for

financial assistance for commissioning market study reports and for
initiating/contesting anti-dumping cases. The scheme came into
operation w.e.f. 30-08-2001.

MSME-MDA COMMITTEE
SECTOR-SPECIFIC MARKET STUDIES
Financial assistance for the conduct of market studies would be
available for industry associations/EPCs/FIEO. These should be sector
specific and in respect of those sectors where MSMEs have a
significant presence. This will include studies commissioned by
industry associations to assess impact of WTO agreements on a specific
sector. The Office of DC(MSME) may also commission such studies
independently under this scheme. Assistance for commissioned studies
would be limited to an overall ceiling of Rs.2 lakhs per study.

practices such as dumping requires much groundwork. Assistance for

50% of total costs involved or Rs. 1 lakh whichever is lower.
Proposals in respect of market assistance/sector studies and for
