Abstract
This study examines the barriers to the growth of small business firms in India. The owners of small business firms from Punjab area of India were surveyed to find out their beliefs and feelings regarding factors that affect the growth of their firms. Findings suggest that lack of financing, market challenges, regulatory issues, and infrastructure are perceived as factors that negatively affect small business growth in India. The results show that when sales level (‘past success’) is held constant, small business growth in India is negatively associated with lack of financing, market challenges, and regulatory issues. The findings also show that when family is held constant, small business growth is negatively associated with lack of financing and regulatory issues. This study contributes to the literature on the barriers to the growth of small business firms. The findings may be useful for the Indian governments, investors, stakeholders, and small business management advisors.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
