Dr. Vivek Bindra, CEO & Founder, Bada Business, the ‘India Revival Mission’ was launched in April after a country-wide lockdown forced businesses to down their shutters, having a devastating impact on the MSME sector. According to a recent report by credit rating agency CRISIL, a 5% contraction is expected in the Indian economy this fiscal which “will significantly hurt MSMEs”. Teaching India The fall in revenue “will be steeper at 17-21%” for MSMEs compared to the formal sector, it added. In such circumstances, the sector needs growth, development and skill support to revive itself and cross its 30% contribution in GDP. A quick revival of India’s economic backbone – the MSMEs – can also help shorten the phase of contraction.
As the only EdTech startup that works primarily for the growth & development of the MSME sector, Bada Business considered it a social and nationalistic responsibility to train, equip and skill small businesses to lift them out of the financial morass. The objective of the ‘India Revival Mission’ was to help businesses reinvent their strategies to thrive in a post COVID world and infuse fresh energy into the economy.
