India has truly become a start-up ‘Nation’. Since 2010,

The Indian technology start-ups landscape has seen a

tremendous growth towards creation of innovative start-

ups and India, a home to a new breed of young start-

ups, has clearly evolved to become the third largest

base of technology start-ups in the world. Within one

year, the number of star t-ups in India has grown by 40

per cent, and this number is expected to cross 4,200

by the end of 2015.

Multiple indicators point to the fact that this ecosystem

is not only undergoing rapid evolution, but is also

becoming increasingly attractive. With over 100 per

cent growth in number of PE/VCs/Angel investors along

with a 125 per cent growth in funding over last year,

one can safely say that the Indian star t-up ecosystem

has risen to the next level. The total funding in the

India based start-ups is estimated to be nearly $5

billion by the end of 2015. Various central and stategovernment start-up initiatives are further supporting

this progressive phase of start-ups in India.

This maturing start-up ecosystem is contributing to the

Indian economy in multiple ways. In addition to

enhancing the lifestyle of citizens, start-ups are

creating innovative technology solutions that address

key problems that India as a country face around

power, healthcare, employment, and education.

Further, start-ups are empowering SMBs by

enhancing their customer reach and overall

business productivity.

After the terrific success of first edition in

2014, the second edition of NASSCOM-Zinnov

report titled “Start-up India – Momentous Rise

of the Indian Start-up Ecosystem” is a

treasure trove of facts and trends on theIndian start-up ecosystem. The report clearly

identifies the current scale and size of the

start-up landscape, factors that are impacting

the growth of the overall ecosystem and steps

that need to be taken to make the environment

more conducive for start-ups.

We hope this report would be useful to you

and we welcome your feedback and comments
