Meera, a sole proprietor in Jaipur, sells handicrafts and wants a legally recognised MSME status to access government scheme benefits. Which step achieves this?

Meera should register on the Udyam Registration portal, which is the online process that gives an enterprise recognised MSME status. Incorporation applies to companies, a trade mark protects a brand name, and a PAN is only a tax identifier, so none of those grants MSME status.
