GeM records transactions worth Rs 5.03 lakh crore in FY26
Apr-07-2026

GeM CEO Mihir Kumar has said public procurement platform Government e-Marketplace (GeM) recorded transactions worth Rs 5.03 lakh crore in the financial year 2025-26 (FY26), reflecting a 7.4% drop from the Rs 5.43 lakh crore seen in 2024-25. He attributed this decline primarily to a reduced contribution from the coal ministry, whose share in total sales decreased from 34 per cent to 20 per cent in 2025-26 (Rs 1,02,219 crore).

He said GeM has achieved a cumulative Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of Rs 18.4 lakh crore, including crossing Rs 5 lakh crore GMV in FY26. The platform continues to evolve as a transparent, efficient and inclusive digital public procurement system, contributing to strengthening India’s public economy. GeM has adopted an inclusive approach to expand access for Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs), women entrepreneurs, SC/ST enterprises and startups. During FY 2025-26, 68 per cent of total orders were executed by MSEs, which accounted for 47.1 per cent of total GMV. 

He noted that more than 11 lakh MSEs are registered on the platform and have received over 51 lakh orders worth Rs 2.36 lakh crore during FY26, reflecting a growth of over 20 per cent compared to the previous financial year. Over 2.1 lakh women-led MSEs are registered on the portal and have received orders exceeding Rs 28,000 crore, registering around 28 per cent growth. SC/ST MSEs have received orders worth over Rs 6,000 crore, reflecting a growth of around 28 per cent. Startups have also contributed significantly, securing orders worth over Rs 19,000 crore during the same period, marking a growth of over 36 per cent.
