Abstract
India is working hard to have no carbon emissions by 2070. This is helping the country move towards an economy. We looked at the business opportunities that are coming up for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and start-ups in areas like renewable energy, electric mobility, waste management and green finance. We used information from government reports and other publications to see how these businesses are using policies like the National Green Hydrogen Mission, FAME-II and Production Linked Incentive schemes to grow. We paid attention to Madhya Pradesh because it has started policies and funding to help green industries. We found places where new ideas are happening. We looked at the problems these businesses are facing like not having enough money and complicated rules. Finally we made suggestions for what the government can do to help businesses. Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and start-ups can make money. Be good for the environment at the same time. This can help everyone in the country. Make India a leader, in finding new ways to deal with climate change. India and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises can work together to make this happen. Key Words: Green Economy MSMEs and Start-ups Renewable Energy Electric Mobility Green Finance Net Zero Emissions (2070)
