Since the last few years, India has started to emerge as a global hub for innovation and entrepreneurship. With the government launching multiple schemes targeted to the growth of startups combined with a growing talent pool and increased access to capital, the Indian startup industry has grown exponentially attracting global attention.
India’s startup environment has been growing extremely fast with the number of startups targeted to increase from 68,000 in 2023 to 1,80,000 by the end of 2030.
The factors leading to increase in number of startups in the country include:
- A digitally proficient youth with new ideas.
- A growing working class
- A regulated environment and framework with regulated policies, rules and regulations specifically aimed at startups.
- Domestic investors entering the ecosystem, replacing the retreating wealthy international financiers, leading to a growth or rise in both investments and the amount of cash moving into a business or economic system within the economy.
- Anticipated participation of investors to grow by 46 % by 2030 with Indian High-Net- Worth Individuals (HNIs) and family offices expressing a high level of passion, excitement, or keen interest for the Indian Startup environment.
