MSMEs seek 6 months debt moratorium as gas supply shortage hits operations
Gas supply disruptions linked to the West Asia conflict have severely impacted MSMEs, especially in Western India.

With strong order books but limited gas availability, MSMEs are seeking a six-month debt moratorium and fresh loans to sustain operations and meet commitments.
