1. Introduction
Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), are credited with generating the highest rates of employment growth and account for a major share of industrial production and exports. They also play a key role in the development of economies with their effective, efficient, flexible and innovative entrepreneurial spirit. The socio-economic policies adopted by India since the Industries (Development and Regulation) Act, 1951 have laid stress on MSMEs as a means to improve the countrys economic conditions.

2. Review of Literature
2.1. For the first time, J.M. Keynes (1936)1 has focused his attention on the forces that determine employment policy followed in industrialization. He propounded the theory that entrepreneurs will offer the amount of employment which maximizes their output and profit. Here he stressed the productivity of labour as the determining factor of the level of employment. There is a positive relationship among productivity of labour, output and employment. According to Keynes employment can only increase pari-pasu with an increase in investment. 2.2 According to the Village and Small scale Industries Committee Report (1955)2, popularly known as Karve Committee Report, since a substantial number of employed and underemployed belongs to the village and small industries group, setting up of small scale and village industries will provide employment to them in occupations in which they have been traditionally trained and for which they possess equipments. The committee realizes the necessity of introducing better techniques in the village industry, so that they can keep pace with the progressively expanding economy and do not become unsuitable tomorrow. 2.3. Prasad (1983)3 in his study found that the small scale industrial sector is an integral part of not only the industrial sector, but also of the countrys economic structure as a whole. If small scale industries are properly developed, they can provide a large volume of employment, can raise income and standard of living of the people in lower income group and can bring about more prosperity and balanced economic development. Small scale industrial sector has vast potential in terms of creating employment and output, promotion of export, expansion of base for indigenous entrepreneurship and dispersal of industries and entrepreneurship skills in both rural as well as backward areas. On the basis of Review of Literature, it is observed that Researchers have emphasized on the importance of the employment generation opportunities through MSMEs, their role in the economy upliftment and in export.

8. Conclusion
From the figures stated above it is clear that the number of working MSMEs, employment opportunities provided by MSMEs, Production in MSMEs and Export has shown an increasing trend from 2001-2011.
9. Suggestions
At present there are less awareness programs or counselling cells provided by the government which will answer the questions in the minds of people about the consequences of MSMEs. Therefore it is suggested that govt. should come with the more awareness camps and programmes in the public. For providing a better understanding on MSMEs the govt. should continuously conduct a research to know the requirements and the problems faced by the people in order to resolve their problems and for further guidance.
