What the register says about Andaman and Nicobar Islands
The numbers the report opens with, counted from the August 2026 snapshot. The same figures are on Startups in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and they will not differ.
| Startups on the register | 382 |
|---|---|
| Districts on the register | 5 |
| Districts with a page (25+ startups) | 4 |
| DPIIT recognised | 105 (27.5%) |
| With a description to read | 124 (32.5%) |
| With a funding signal of any class | 69 (18.1%) |
| Largest district | Port Blair, 187 (49.0%) |
| Largest category | Travel & Tourism, 86 |
The government's count beside ours
| Our count | 382 |
|---|---|
| Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the government's state facet | 401 |
| Difference | -19 (-4.7%) |
A gap is expected and is not an error in either number: ours counts resolved companies after merging duplicate profiles, the government's counts profiles.
What stands out
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands invert the usual pattern. Recognition runs at 27.5%, barely half the 51.2% national rate, while the funding-signal rate is 18.1% against 10.5%, among the highest anywhere on the register. Few companies here have been granted DPIIT status, and a relatively large share carry a public mention of money raised. Port Blair and South Andaman together account for 82.2% and describe the same island group under two labels. No incubator in the territory holds a Seed Fund approval.
Port Blair holds 187 of the state's 382, 49.0%, and South Andaman is second with 127. Travel & Tourism is the largest category with 86 companies. The government's own facet for Andaman and Nicobar Islands counts 401 against our 382; the report prints both and explains the gap rather than hiding it. No Startup India Seed Fund allocation is recorded for Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and the report says so rather than leaving the chapter out.
Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. A scheme registration is not money. How we counted.
Composed from the August 2026 counts. Edition 1 replaces this with the report's own written summary.

Who it is for
- Sales and lead-gen teams
- A filterable list with website and CIN. Registration is not activity and we say so; every row carries what the register holds, you can filter to companies with all six evidence marks, and the first 25 rows of any filter are free.
- Ecosystem professionals
- A citable, designed report for a deck or a tender: eight things the site does not have, from the monthly curve since 2016 to the tax-exemption applications, with Lucknow open in full so you can judge the series before buying into it.
- Investors and researchers
- Companies by industry, district, stage and evidence, in four honest classes and never one "funded" boolean, plus the exemption applications nobody else publishes. We hold no amounts and we never fake them.

Five questions
- What is in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands report?
- 14 chapters over 43 pages: What the register says about Andaman and Nicobar Islands, How the register grew, What Andaman and Nicobar Islands' startups do, Stage, and 10 more, ending in the methodology and an appendix. It comes as a PDF and as chapters inside the research portal, and one purchase covers every refreshed edition of this report for 12 months.
- Is it just the Indian Startup Map website printed to PDF?
- No. Eight things the site does not have: the monthly registration curve since 2016, capital bands, every pincode ranked, the peer table, the government's count beside ours, the 60 best-evidenced in one table, the Seed Fund ledger, and the tax-exemption applications. The free chapter on this page is the one part that overlaps with Startups in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and the whole Lucknow report is open so you can see the other 13 chapters before paying for any.
- How fresh is the Andaman and Nicobar Islands report?
- It is built from the August 2026 snapshot of the register, edition 1. The register is swept monthly and each sweep produces a new edition; a Report buyer receives every edition of this report for 12 months. Nothing in it claims growth across snapshots until two exist to compare.
- Can I get the list of Andaman and Nicobar Islands startups instead?
- The report is chapters, not rows. The rows are in Explore on the research portal: the count for any filter is free, the first 25 rows with website and CIN on a free account, 200 per search on Library, and every row with a CSV or XLSX export on Pro, 5,000 rows a file and never the address line.
- What does "registered" mean here?
- Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. A startup on this register filled in a Startup India profile. 105 of Andaman and Nicobar Islands's 382 carry DPIIT recognition, which is a status the portal shows and not a check we ran. Registration is not incorporation, and it is not activity.
