Our experts guide you through the eligibility criteria, document preparation, and application filing to ensure you receive your Startup India Certificate without hassle. Whether you are a new venture or an existing business (less than 10 years old), we help you unlock the full potential of government support.
What is Startup India Scheme?
The Startup India Scheme is a flagship initiative of the Government of India, intended to catalyse startup culture and build a strong and inclusive ecosystem for innovation and entrepreneurship in India. The primary objective is to drive sustainable economic growth and generate large-scale employment opportunities.
Under this scheme, an entity is considered a "Startup" if it is incorporated as a Private Limited Company, a Partnership Firm, or a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) in India. The entity must be less than 10 years old from the date of incorporation and have an annual turnover not exceeding ₹100 crore in any preceding financial year. Most importantly, the entity should be working towards innovation, development, or improvement of products or processes, or have a scalable business model with a high potential for employment generation or wealth creation.
Benefits of Startup India Registration:
Registering under the Startup India scheme opens doors to a plethora of government incentives designed to help your business scale. Here are the key benefits:
Income Tax Exemption
Eligible startups can apply for income tax exemption for 3 consecutive years out of the first 10 years under Section 80-IAC of the Income Tax Act.
Angel Tax Exemption
Investments into eligible startups by accredited investors are exempt from Section 56(2)(viib) of the Income Tax Act (Angel Tax).
IPR Benefits
Startups get an 80% rebate on patent filing fees and a 50% rebate on trademark filing fees, along with fast-tracked processing.
Government Tenders
Startups are exempted from the "prior experience/turnover" criteria in public procurement, making it easier to win government contracts.
Self-Certification
Startups can self-certify compliance with 6 Labour Laws and 3 Environmental Laws, reducing regulatory inspections for up to 5 years.
Easy Winding Up
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code allows startups to wind up operations within 90 days, allowing entrepreneurs to re-allocate capital faster.
