Lack of experience in fi nancial matters was the most prevalent problem for the registered entrepreneurs with weighted average 2.19 followed by poor risk-taking capacity with weighted average 2.08 and ranked II. The socio-familial problems foe registered and un-registered enterprises was lack of appreciation (Rank I) followed by lack of their role acceptance (Rank II).

The intense market competition was most widespread problem in both the enterprises. Study suggested that un-registered enterprises should be motivated and guided to get their enterprise registered to draw benefi ts and to make them economically viable and vibrant.
