What is Startup India Registration?

Business Registration

Startup India Registration is a government recognition provided under the Startup India Initiative by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT). It is designed to support innovative startups by offering tax benefits, funding access, legal relaxations, and easier compliance.

Once registered, your business becomes a DPIIT-recognized startup, enabling you to access exclusive government incentives, faster growth opportunities, and official startup recognition in India.

This registration is ideal for entrepreneurs building innovative, scalable, and technology-driven businesses.

Why Startup India Registration Is Important

Startup India recognition helps early-stage businesses reduce compliance burden, save taxes, and gain credibility with investors, banks, and government authorities.

It officially validates your startup as an innovation-driven enterprise and opens doors to multiple government-backed benefits.
