Udyam Re-Registration is the process of renewing or updating an existing MSME registration on the government’s Udyam portal. It applies to businesses that were already registered under the old Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM) or EM-Part II schemes. The Udyam portal (launched July 2020) replaced the older system.
For example, all Udyog Aadhaar holders were originally required to migrate by March 31, 2021, and this deadline was later extended to December 31, 2021 to help firms transition. Keeping your Udyam certificate active is crucial because it validates your status as a micro, small, or medium enterprise (MSME) and is the key to accessing government loans, subsidies and legal protections.
✅ No physical documents or bank statements are required. The portal auto-fetches data via your PAN & Aadhaar (GST & ITR linked).
⚠️ If your business exceeds these limits, you are no longer eligible as an MSME and cannot re-register.
➡️ If your business now falls into a new category, update it during re-registration to continue availing MSME benefits.
📝 Note: Always use the official portal: udyamregistration.gov.in
There is no explicit fine for late re-registration, but the practical consequences are serious. If you miss the update deadline, your Udyam registration may be marked inactive or even cancelled. This means:
✅ To avoid these issues, re-register in a timely manner so your MSME status remains valid.
