Micro Small Enterprises Cluster Development Programme (MSE-CDP Scheme)
The Micro & Small Enterprises – Cluster Development Programme (MSE-CDP) is a flagship initiative of the Ministry of MSME aimed at promoting the growth and competitiveness of Micro and Small Enterprises through a cluster-based approach. By supporting the development of modern infrastructure, common facility centres, and shared services, the programme enables MSMEs within a cluster to access essential tools, technology, and facilities that may otherwise be unaffordable individually. MSE-CDP helps improve production efficiency, reduce operational costs, enhance product quality, and strengthen market competitiveness. Through collective development and shared resources, the scheme fosters sustainable growth, innovation, and employment generation within MSME clusters across India.
