<a href=\"https:\/\/carajput.com\/publications\/startup-registration.pdf\">Start-up India Scheme<\/a>, which was an initiative to support entrepreneurs in starting their own businesses. Under the scheme, the Government is looking to provide benefits to the entrepreneurs having an idea in their mind and the same is capable of being implemented. The <a href=\"https:\/\/carajput.com\/blog\/tag\/startup-india-hub\/\">Start-up India<\/a> Scheme was launched on 16<sup>th<\/sup> August 2016 and the same was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.<\/p>\r\n<p>The aim behind the introduction of such a scheme was to provide a path for sustainable development and proper implementation of ideas along with innovation. Apart from sustainable development and innovation, Start-up India Scheme, also focused on the generation of new employment opportunities within India.<\/p>\r\n<p>Such an initiative was required since many startups were gaining huge success and momentum in India. This step was very crucial for the development of the Indian economy and attracting and motivating young and talented entrepreneurs to come up with their ideas and innovation, which will indeed prove to be beneficial for India.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"MEANING_OF_STARTUP\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>MEANING OF STARTUP<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p>Start-up basically means, establishing a new company with some new idea or innovation. Start-up India Scheme was all about helping entrepreneurs to establish their own businesses.<\/p>\r\n<p>The main difference between a start-up and other forms of business is that a start-up generally tends to offer a new product\/service, which was not recognized previously by any other business. Thus, start-ups are generally known for their presence in the innovation market.<\/p>\r\n<p>In a start-up, a company generally develops a new product\/ service or recreates any existing product\/service which will indeed be a better version of the earlier product. But the main problem that arises in such a case, is funding. As we know, funding is the most important factor for the success and sustainability of any business.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DEFINITION_OF_STARTUP\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>DEFINITION OF STARTUP<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p>A business is termed as a start-up, based on the following conditions &#8211;<\/p>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li>The business is incorporated as a Private Limited company under the Companies Act, 2013 or a Partnership Firm under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, or a Limited Liability Partnership under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008.<\/li>\r\n<li>Such a business incorporated, be considered as a start-up, for a maximum of 10 years from the date of its incorporation.<\/li>\r\n<li>The main objective of such business shall be innovation, development, improvement of existing products, services, and processes and also generate a significant amount of employment.<\/li>\r\n<li>The annual turnover of such a business shall not exceed Rs 100 crores, at any point of time.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_are_you_planning_to_establish_your_startup\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: 'Fira Sans', sans-serif;\">When are you planning to establish your startup?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"text-align: start; line-height: 22.5pt; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Lato',sans-serif; color: #666666;\">Few questions have arisen whenever you considering starting a business.
