Based on the findings of the author?s doctoral research, the present volume carefully examines the multi-faceted problems of the Modern Small Scale Industrial Sector of Assam with particular reference to the undivided district of Dibrugarh. Taking capacity utilization as yardstick for industrial growth, the study analyses the various constraints relating to Marketing, Financial, Material, Labour, which stand in the way of the SSI units in utilizing their full capabilities. Apart from these objective problems the book points out certain subjective issues which hinder smooth functioning of the SSI units.
