This Study helps to know about the Small Scale Industries Development and Importance. Development of Small industry has been given much priority in adopting modern technology and utilizing the entrepreneurial talent for absorbing the labour force in gainful employment so as to raise the productivity and income levels. The development of small industry facilitates the dispersal of industries, utilization of local resources and factor endowments available in the area / Region. In view of the labour intensity and favourable capital-output ratio, the development of small industry also facilitates the overall process of development.
