 +
 +===== Step-by-step =====
 +  - Visit udyamregistration.gov.in → Print / Verify.
 +  - Enter URN OR Aadhaar number + OTP.
 +  - Download Udyam Registration Certificate (PDF).
 +  - For new registration: same portal → New Entrepreneur → enter Aadhaar → OTP → fill PAN + business details → certificate generated.
 +  - NSIC-linkage: udyamregistration.gov.in offers NSIC empanelment via the same login.
 +  - Renew/Update: any changes (turnover, employees, address) auto-sync via PAN+GST+ITR data — no manual update needed.
 +
 +===== Real story from a citizen =====
 +**What we hear from RTI Wiki users**: Pooja, a 32-year-old founder of a small printing business in Pune, applied for Udyam in 2023 to access MSME tenders. Certificate showed but classification was "Micro" instead of "Small" (despite Rs. 5 cr turnover). She filed an RTI to MSME Ministry under §6 asking classification basis + correction process. Reply in 24 days clarified that classification updates automatically via PAN+GST data sync after first ITR filing post-registration. After her FY24 ITR, classification updated to Small; tender eligibility unlocked.
 +
 +===== 7 reasons your status may be stuck =====
 +  * **Aadhaar mismatch** — name on PAN ≠ Aadhaar. Fix: gazette + re-attempt.
 +  * **Mobile not Aadhaar-linked** — OTP fails. Fix: visit UIDAI centre.
 +  * **Classification disputed** — auto-classification by PAN+GST data mismatches business reality. Fix: file RTI for review.
 +  * **Multiple Udyam under same Aadhaar** — only one allowed per individual.
 +  * **PAN-Aadhaar not linked** — auto-rejected since 2023. Fix: link first.
 +
 +===== Pro tips most don't know =====
 +  * **Free + lifetime validity** — no renewal, no fees ever. Old EM-II / Udyog Aadhaar got auto-migrated.
 +  * **Auto-classification** based on annual turnover and investment (from PAN+GST+ITR sync). Re-classification happens automatically.
 +  * **MSME benefits** unlocked: priority sector lending, government tender preference (25% set-aside for Micro+Small), %%TReDS%% access, late-payment dispute resolution under MSMED Act §15-23.
 +  * **45-day payment rule** under MSMED §15 — buyers must pay registered MSMEs within 45 days; otherwise interest @ 3x bank rate.
 +  * **SAMADHAAN portal** (samadhaan.msme.gov.in) — file delayed-payment complaints; mandatory conciliation + arbitration if needed.
