In India by the year 2025, approximately 75% of the population would be employable. For the overall development of the country, we need better skills and opportunities at the same time. The population with proper skills could help the nation to generate revenue, create job opportunities and mitigate poverty. Small-scale industries in India are crucial for the development of the nation as a developed country, despite that this sector is facing a shortage of skilled workforce. Understanding and mitigating the challenge of skilled workforce shortage is crucial for the growth and success of small-scale industries in India. By analysing the factors contributing to the shortage, evaluating its impacts, and exploring potential solutions, this research paper aims to provide valuable insights for policymakers, industry leaders, and stakeholders in addressing this pressing challenge. Ultimately, the findings and recommendations from this study can contribute to fostering a skilled and competitive workforce that supports the sustainable development of small-scale industries in India.
