What we got for SMEs and Startup Services?
1. Invoice Financing
To improve the cash flow within the SMEs, Sitharaman reiterated that invoice financing app will be launched. Businesses will be able to borrow funds through invoice financing equivalent to the amount due from their customers.
This will not only help in having cash flow in an organization but aid in payment of services, assets, salaries, and others. Before, ...
... the businesses were required to wait for the payment from the customers’ side.
2. Turnover Threshold for Audit
Present Scenario: Businesses that have a turnover of more than 1 crore are required to get their accounts audited.
After the budget 2020: Sitharaman has proposed to raise the threshold to 5 crores which will reduce a lot of burden on small enterprises. Perhaps, this would be only beneficial for businesses that hold less than 5% of the transaction in cash.
3. GeM or Government-e-Marketplace
