Abstract

This research aims to gain insight into the thought-provoking decision process within Indian small and medium enterprises. The research also sought to gain insight into the essential aspects of controlling this decision process in these firms, as well as to comprehend the diverse factors that impact this process. The research was conducted using qualitative approach specifically through in-depth interviews. As part of this study, interviews were conducted with 10 business managers from Indian SME's. Based on the research findings, it is evident that Indian firms exhibit a higher level of rationality compared to what it is commonly portrayed within the current body of recently published work. However, these firms also depend on their instinct when necessary to enhance the aspect of the outcome. According to their analysis findings, the Indian SME firms do utilize structured managing decision process. However, the specific application of these processes depends on the type of organization and the nature of the decision at hand. The findings also indicate a strong impact of political behavior and because social elements have less of an impact on managerial controlling-decisions in these corporations, the study does add to the framework by validating earlier research and offering a cleaner approach.
