“The Union Budget 2026 sends a strong and reassuring signal for India’s MSMEs by placing education, employment, enterprise and access to capital at the center of the growth agenda. The proposed Education to Employment and Enterprise Standing Committee reflects a long-term, services-led vision that recognizes MSMEs and new entrepreneurs not just as job creators, but as scalable growth partners in India’s journey towards Viksit Bharat. Measures such as the ₹10,000 crore SME Growth Fund, continued support for micro enterprises, and regulatory enablement through Corporate Mitras directly address key challenges around access to finance, compliance, and capability building. At Brinco, we are working towards enabling entrepreneurs to build and scale businesses through franchising, and this year's Budget strongly aligns with our vision of creating a more inclusive, transparent and growth-ready ecosystem, where entrepreneurs across regions can access proven business models, reduce risk, and participate meaningfully in India’s economic growth.” -  Mr Nasrulla Shariff N, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of BRINCO Hub Pvt.
