Study The World, Match Their Standards”: Modi’s Message To Indian MSMEs

Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized that India’s expanding network of free trade agreements has opened vast global opportunities, but success depends on uncompromising quality standards. He urged manufacturers and MSMEs to focus on research, understand international consumer preferences, and deliver user-friendly products that meet or exceed global benchmarks. Highlighting reforms in MSME classification, easier credit access, and technology upgradation, he encouraged enterprises to compete with confidence. Modi also underscored record infrastructure investments in rail, highways, ports and logistics to cut costs and boost efficiency. He said industry must align strategies with this vision to fully leverage India’s growth momentum and global trade potential.
