Total lockdown has led to work from home option catching on in IT, ITES and even a number of corporate companies. However, for the Micro, Small and Medium-scale Enterprises (MSMEs) in the manufacturing sector, all activities have come to a standstill.
According to K.V. Karthik, president of Southern India Engineering Manufacturers’ Association, there is less than 5 % administration work at MSMEs in the manufacturing sector. If there is no revenue generating activity, there is no income. Hence, there is nothing much that can be done by the staff from home. Work from home option cannot apply to manufacturing units, he said.

Almost all industries in Coimbatore and Tiruppur districts will remain shut for one week from Monday because of complete lockdown in the State to control the pandemic.
Just about 10 % of MSMEs in Coimbatore are in essential and healthcare sectors and only these will operate, said M.V. Ramesh Babu, president of Coimbatore District Small Industries Association. While the foundries in the MSME sector will not operate, the larger foundries are expected to decide individually.
Spinning mills will not function as the government had not given permission even to those units that house the workers on the premises. Garment exporting units will also remain closed.
