MSME (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) are the heart of Indian Industry. Their contribution especially to a developing country like India is very valuable. They not only contribute in generating employment but also encourage low skilled level workers to start as entrepreneur level in rural areas. This position gets reflected in the form of their increasing number and rising proportion in the overall product manufacturing, exports, manpower employment, technical innovations and promotion of entrepreneurial skills. It helps in industrialization of rural and backward areas, reducing regional imbalances and assuring more equitable distribution of national income and wealth. Khadi and Village Industries is one of the significant wing of MSME (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) Sector in India. The contribution of KVI in increasing employment, exports of products, developing rural areas is incomparable. Over the years, Khadi and Village Industries Commission-KVIC had many efforts with the MSME Ministry to develop the Khadi and Village Industries and as a result of this, KVI is one of the successful sectors of MSME. It has developed many indigenous industries in India. The research paper focuses to evaluate the contribution of KVI in employment, production and sales of KVI and about its budgetary fundings.
