Apply for DPIIT startup recognition with a clear innovation write-up that reviewers can assess.
DPIIT recognition under the Startup India initiative identifies eligible private limited companies, LLPs and registered partnership firms as startups. Recognised startups can access benefits such as self-certification under certain labour and environmental laws, fast-tracked and fee-reduced patent and trademark filing, and eligibility to apply for income tax exemption under Section 80-IAC. The application turns largely on how well the innovation and scalability of the business are explained, which is where we focus our effort.

Private limited companies, LLPs and registered partnership firms that are within the age and turnover limits prescribed by DPIIT and are working on innovation, improvement of products or processes, or a scalable business model with potential for employment or wealth creation.
No. Recognition is the first step. The tax holiday under Section 80-IAC requires a separate application to the Inter-Ministerial Board, which approves only a subset of eligible startups.
A sole proprietorship is not eligible. An entity must be a private limited company, LLP or registered partnership firm as per the current notification.
No. DPIIT evaluates each application and may seek clarifications or reject it. A clear explanation of the innovation improves the chances, but the decision rests with DPIIT.
Generally no. An entity formed by splitting up or reconstructing an existing business is not considered a startup under the DPIIT definition.
