A recent report states that startups in India are expected to raise USD 700 million and 5000 jobs in the next 12 months. The Startup India iniciative, launched in January by Narendra Modi, plans to move in the same direction by providing incentives to startups in the form better incubation, talent and capital.
To ensure that only deserving companies enjoy benefits of “Start Up Action Plan”, the government recently defined the term “startup”.
