The government's count beside ours

Chandigarh, the government's state facet: our count against the government's, with the difference
Our count 1,849
Chandigarh, the government's state facet 1,977
Difference -128 (-6.5%)

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

Chandigarh holds 1,849 of Chandigarh's 1,849 registered startups, 100.0% of the state. Healthcare & Lifesciences is its largest category with 212 companies (11.5%) out of 52 categories in use. 948 of the 1,849 carry a CIN and 875 a website, which is what the best-evidenced table in chapter 8 is built from.

223 carry a funding signal of some class. 216 of those are the self-declared checkbox on the government form and 6 are attested by a named backer, fund or state programme; the report prints the classes apart and never adds them into one "funded" number. 672 of Chandigarh's startups can be placed to a street, which is the population the pincode chapter ranks.

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.

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 Chandigarh report?
14 chapters over 44 pages: What the register says about Chandigarh, How the register grew, What Chandigarh's 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 Chandigarh, and the whole Lucknow report is open so you can see the other 13 chapters before paying for any.
How fresh is the Chandigarh 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 Chandigarh 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. 687 of Chandigarh's 1,849 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.
