Yes, absolutely
Yes, you can become a seller on Government platforms like GeM (Government e‑Marketplace) solely based on your MSME Udyam registration—with no separate GeM registration required. Here's how it works:
🧾 Udyam → GeM Automatic Integration
When you register on the Udyam portal, one question asks: “Are you interested in getting registered on the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) Portal?”
If you select "Yes", your Udyam data (Aadhaar/PAN/GST etc.) is automatically shared with GeM via API, eliminating the need for separate GeM signup (The Financial Express).
The Udyam portal is integrated with GeM, CPPP, TReDS, and other government systems, enabling instant seller access once registered (Udyam Registration).
✅ Benefits of Selling on GeM via Udyam
Instant seller onboarding – no separate vetting or documentation upload required .
Access to government orders – GeM handles tenders, orders, and transparent procurement.
Preferential treatment for MSMEs – exemptions from bid security (EMD), relaxed eligibility, and subsidy benefits
Timely payments – GeM ensures prompt payment flow after delivery acceptance .
🛠How to Get Started
Go to Udyamregistration.gov.in and complete your MSME registration.
When prompted, choose Yes for GeM (and optionally, TReDS, NSIC B2B).
After submission, you receive a Udyam Certificate with URN and dynamic QR code
Using the same Aadhaar-linked mobile/email, your GeM account is auto-created.
Log in at gem.gov.in, finalize your profile, add product/service listings, and start selling
