‘There has been no support from the government’ A cross-section of the representatives of the Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) said the announcements made by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in the Union Budget will not solve any of the problems facing the sector for several years now.
Ms. Sitharaman said the government would reduce the customs duty uniformly to 7.5% on semis, flat, and long products of non-alloy, alloy, and stainless steel. To provide relief to metal recyclers, mostly MSMEs, she extended duty duty exemption on steel scrap till March 31, 2022.
