Current Data of Cases Filed before MSEFC
The number of cases filed by the aggrieved MSME before the MSEFC Council till date for the delayed payment from the buyers are as follows:
Who Can File a Case before MSME?
Any supplier who is a registered MSME has supplied goods or services to any buyer. If the buyer fails to make payment for the supplied goods or services from the supplier beyond the agreed date or 45 days from the date of the Invoice, then the supplier shall file a case before MSEFC for the delayed payment from the buyer.
Section 15 of the MSMED Act, 2006 provides the time frame for when the Buyer shall pay a Micro or Small Enterprise supplier. Where any supplier supplies any goods or renders any services to any buyer, the buyer shall make payment on or before the date agreed upon between him and the supplier in writing or, where there is no agreement on this behalf, before the appointed day:
Provided that in no case shall the period agreed upon between the supplier and the buyer in writing exceed forty-five days from the day of acceptance or the day of deemed acceptance. It means that the maximum period that is allowed under the MSMED Act for payment to be made is 45 days from the date of delivery of goods or receipt of services if no objections are made within 15 days from such date. If any objections are made, then the number of days gets extended by the number of days taken to remove the objection.
