Which financial aspect of MSMEs does the Bill emphasize strengthening?

The MSME Amendment Bill 2026 was passed by the Rajya Sabha on August 3 and the Lok Sabha on August 7, 2026; it aims to strengthen the working capital and liquidity of MSMEs by facilitating the speedy resolution of delayed payment disputes. A provision has been made for the payment of at least 50% of the amount if a challenge against a payment order in favor of an MSME remains pending for six months or more, thereby boosting the 'Ease of Doing Business' and financial stability.
