The short answer

NSIC registration under the Single Point Registration Scheme helps micro and small enterprises participate in government purchases. Registered units may receive tender documents free of cost, exemption from earnest money deposit and preference in public procurement, subject to tender conditions. Eligibility requires Udyam registration as a micro or small enterprise and capacity verification.
