Protection of property rights –  When small
                enterprises make fixed investments and expand
                their businesses, a predictable system of taxation
                helps the enterprise and the entrepreneur.  In
                situations of conflicts or break down of law and
                order, it is important that the entrepreneur has the
                protection of certain rights.

                Making the process of small and medium
                enterprises politically viable – This is necessary for
                ascertaining sustainable growth. In spite of having
                reforms, expanding competition and bringing in
                new technologies, the lack of skill and education
                may hamper the capacity and ability to actually
                benefit  from such  facilities. Entrepreneurship
                doesn’t have widespread political acceptance
                which is why expansion of capabilities is vital.

                Basic safety net- A safety net enables entrepreneurs
                to take risks. Making an exit in case of failure should
                be smooth and a safety net helps. India has started
                to create such safety nets by providing access to
                reasonable minimum health care, minimum old age
                insurance and minimum unemployment insurance.
                There is an utmost need to create a safety net which
                is affordable by the state and nation, so that people
                have the motivation and confidence to take risks.
