<h1>Government Deregulates Last 20 MSE-Exclusive Items to Boost Investment, Competition, and Technology Adoption in India.</h1> An Advisory Committee under the Industries (Development Regulation) Act, 1951, recommended de-reserving the last 20 items exclusively manufactured by Micro and Small Enterprises (MSE) in India. This decision, formalized by a government notification, aligns with India's economic liberalization policies since 1991. The deregulation aims to foster investment and competition by allowing imports and encouraging MSEs to adopt advanced technologies and economies of scale. The de-reserved items include pickles, bread, mustard oil, wooden furniture, exercise books, laundry soap, safety matches, fireworks, agarbatties, and various steel and aluminum products. This policy change is intended to boost competitiveness in both domestic and global markets.
