Towards the entrepreneurs, the Udyam Registration is a self-declaration portal for the entrepreneurs to enroll their companies with the Aadhaar number.

The certificate holds the QR code from which the information about the company can be taken.

Moreover, the government would also get data based on the product category, for instance, garment, electronics, gems, auto, etc., and the size of the enterprise along with the investment and turnover. Also, geographically, the government would get the data to understand the density of the MSMEs based on city, state, or district wise.
