What government initiatives are supporting the growth of startups in India?
The Indian government has implemented several key initiatives to boost startups. The Fund of Funds for Startups (FFS) with 10,000 crore rupees supports venture capital firms investing in startups. In 2021, the Startup India Seed Fund Scheme launched with 1,000 crore rupees, supporting over 450 incubators helping more than 1,000 startups. Startups also benefit from DPIT Recognition, which provides tax exemptions for three years and self-certification for compliance, essentially giving entrepreneurs a "VIP pass" through bureaucratic hurdles. These initiatives have fueled the growth of over 159,000 registered startups, including more than 75,000 women-led ventures, creating a robust ecosystem with significant venture capital funding reaching 85,000 crore rupees ($10 billion) in 2023 alone.
