Akola on the map

Open the full map

3 startups in Akola placed at their locality or street, each shown as its logo (or its initials) and ringed in the colour of who is behind it, with a tag when an investor, incubator, accelerator or named programme lists it. Where several are too close to separate, the strongest shows with a count, and zooming in splits them apart. 24 more are known only to the district, so they open as a list from the map rather than being drawn. The rest of Akola's 343 are counted on this page but are not on the map: a startup with no backer and no coordinate has nothing to plot.

Companies in Akola

We do not list every company. One appears here only where the register holds more than a name for it: a description the company wrote about itself, and either a CIN or a website. 153 of the 343 Akola registrations clear that bar. These are the 60 we hold the most for, best-evidenced first. Search reaches the rest.

It is a test of whether there is anything to read, not of whether the company is trading. Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. How we counted.

What the six marks mean

  • DPIIT recognised
  • CIN on file
  • Website
  • Description
  • Logo
  • Funding signal

A filled mark is a field we hold for that company. A hollow one is a field we do not. It is a summary of what the register gave us, not a rating: none of it says whether the company is trading.

Startups by area in Akola

6 areas of Akola with at least 5 registered startups, largest first, named as India Post names each pincode. A pincode reaches us on a company's own filing, so this is where companies say they are registered, not where they work.

Rows that link have their own page. The rest are counted here but are too small for one: below 50 companies a page would be a heading and a number.

Stage is self-declared by the company on its Startup India profile. It is not assessed by DPIIT and it is not audited.

Location precision

Bar widths are the real proportions. Only the 76 startups with a street-level coordinate are ever drawn as a pin. Everything else is drawn as an area, because that is what we actually know.

Akola: questions people ask

Every number in these answers is counted from the Akola startups in our 2026-08 snapshot.

How many startups are registered in Akola?

343 companies on the Startup India register startup Akola, Maharashtra as their district in our 2026-08 snapshot. 164 of them, 47.8%, carry a DPIIT recognition number, and 32 startup a funding signal of some kind. We publish the government's own register, we do not run it.

Which industries do Akola startups register under?

The three largest categories in Akola are Agriculture with 42 companies (12.2%), Education with 29 companies (8.5%), IT Services with 23 companies (6.7%), out of 48 categories used here. A company picks its own category when it registers, so this is self-declared and not audited.

Do you know where in Akola these companies actually are?

Mostly no, and we say so rather than guessing. 76 of Akola's 343 startups (22.2%) have a street-level coordinate, 10 (2.9%) are placed to a locality, and 257 (74.9%) are known only to the district. Only street-level startups are drawn as a pin, and we never publish a door number.

Does a startup here mean the company is trading in Akola?

No. Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. We hold a description, a website, a CIN or a recognition number for 153 of Akola's 343 startups (44.6%); for the other 190 we have little more than a name and a district. How we counted.

Startup India records a district, not a city, so Akola here means the district of that name and any districts we fold into it. The raw district is kept on every startup.

About this data

Indian Startup Map is an independent directory built from the Government of India's Startup India register and other public sources, snapshot 2026-08. We do not run the register, we do not own or represent any company on it, and nothing here is an endorsement of one. Company names and logos belong to their owners. Every source is listed.

A dot on the map may be wrong, and most of them are not an address. 76 of Akola's 343 startups (22%) carry a street-level coordinate; the rest sit at the centre of their district, which is a label position and not a place. Where we do hold something finer it is a geocode of a registered office, which is frequently a founder's home rather than a place of business, so we round it and never publish the address line.

Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. Figures come from our own count of that snapshot and will differ from the government's own census, which counts differently.
