According to information provided by the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises Ministry, the MSME sector employs more people than any other after agriculture, contributing around 30% of India’s GDP and 45% of its exports. PM Narendra Modi has frequently emphasized how important this sector will be in assisting India’s transition to a $5 lakh crore economy. In addition, Naresh said that they are currently concentrating on organic development and adding more than 600 monthly installs that way. They will become lucrative with the use of this “strategic blueprint.” In 2018, Naresh and his friends Dhanesh Kumar and Jaideep Poonia established Khatabook.
