1. Startup Registration India: Blueprint for Entrepreneurs People may have ideas, but many of them do not know how to set up a company or convert the idea into a business venture. People don’t know how to register their business as a startup. Some people don’t even know if their company qualifies as a startup. With this in mind, we have created a blog post to help you by explaining the eligibility criteria for the Startup Registration India and the process of registering your company. Before diving into qualifications and how the process works, let’s understand what Startup Registration India is. What is a Startup? A startup is a company or organization in its early stages and is typically characterized by a high degree of uncertainty and risk. Such companies arise when the founders realize that the existing system, they were working in has some flaws and try to solve the problem by starting a new company themselves. Startup India Scheme Startup India is an initiative of the Government of India, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to foster the growth of startups in India. The initiative was announced in New Delhi on January 16, 2016. Now that you have a good idea of what a startup is and what Startup India is, let’s look at the conditions under which every company in India can qualify as a startup.

2. Startup Eligibility Criteria To qualify as a startup, the following criteria must be met: •Business must be a Limited Liability Company or limited partnership. •The company remains a startup for the first 10 years from the date of registration. Recently, the Indian government changed this period from 7 years to 10 years to provide long-term opportunities and tax exemptions to businesses. •A company remains a startup if its annual turnover for 10 years does not in any case exceed 10 billion rupees. Beyond this threshold, a company can no longer be called a Startup. INR 100 crore was also recently raised by the Government of India from INR 25 crore. •Companies must obtain approval from the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). •The company must receive funding from an Incubation Fund, Angel Fund, or Private Equity Fund. •Sponsored by the Indian Patent and Trademark Office required. •Recommendation letter from childcare provider required. •Companies need to develop innovative ideas and plans. •All financing details must be registered with SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India).
