  8. Role of Small Scale Industry in India

  9. Large Scope for Employment: The small-scale industries provide large scope for employment on a massive scale. In 2001 the employment generated in this sector was 19.2 million. This is of great significance for a country like India which is a labour-surplus economy, and where labour-force is increasing at a very rapid rate. Moreover, the small-scale industries being labour-intensive they employ more labour per unit of capital for a given output compared to the large-scale industries. This is evident from the fact that the small-scale sector accounts for as much as 80% of the total employment in the industrial sector.

  10. Large Production: The small-scale industries also contribute a sizeable amount to the industrial output of the country. Out of the total output of the manufacturing sector, as much as 40% comes from these industries. And out of the total supplies of industrial consumer goods a major part originates in the small-scale sector. Almost all the products of this sector are in the nature of consumer goods, with a significant part consisting of luxury goods. The adequate availability of consumer goods plays an important role in stabilizing and developing the economy.

  11. Large Exports: Many products of the small-scale industries like handloom cotton fabrics, silk fabrics, handicrafts, carpets, jewellery, etc. are exported to foreign countries. Their share in the total exports is as much as 40%. • Use of Latent (domestic) resources: These resources are, the hoarded wealth, family-labour, artisan’s skills, native entrepreneurship, etc. Being thinly spread throughout the country, these resources cannot be used by large-scale industries which need them in big amounts and at a few specified places. These industries also provide opportunities to the small entrepreneurs to learn, to take risks, to experiment, to innovate and to compete with others.

  12. Promoting Welfare: The small-scale industries are also very important for welfare reasons. This increases their income-levels and quality of life. Further, these industries tend to promote equitable distribution of income. This also helps in the reduction of regional economic disparities. The freedom to work, self-reliance, self-confidence, enthusiasm to achieve and all such traits of a healthy nation can be built around the activities performed in these industries. It also becomes possible to preserve the inherited skill of our artisans which would otherwise disappear
