Hey Varun!
The Capacity Assessment Document issued by MSME basically certifies the production capacity of your unit, i.e., how much your manufacturing or service unit can produce or handle within a certain time period. This is often used to prove your capability to fulfill large orders or tenders.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
-
Production Certificate by DTIC/DOI:
Issued by Department of Trade & Industry Commerce (DTIC) or Department of Industries (DOI), this certifies your actual production or installed capacity.
-
Capacity Assessment Document by MSME:
This is similar but issued by MSME Development Institutes or relevant MSME authorities. It assesses your unit’s production capacity based on factors like machinery, labor, and operational hours.
