Assam is situated at the North-Eastern Himalayan sub –region of India. The economy of the state is mostly agricultural based .In spite of having huge potentials for the development of resource-based and demand –based industries in the state, the pace of industrialization in Assam is not satisfactory. In a backward state like Assam, small scale industries have a big role to play. As these industries require minimum capital and ordinary tools and implement, rural families can run these industries. Considering the significant role played by these industries the government has allocated funds through budget for the improvement of such units. This paper is an attempt to analyze the public expenditure on village and small industries in Assam. Taking into consideration all issues related to the village and small industries, a policy reform is important to address almost all aspects associated with this significant sector. All these require a huge amount of expenditure on the part of the government and it will certainly aggrandize the economy of the state.
