The ledger

Every approved incubator in Sikkim, largest allocation first. Track length is the approved amount against the largest allocation in the state; the filled portion is what has actually been disbursed. An incubator's name is a link only where we hold a published record for it.

The register this money sits in

Sikkim has 112 companies on the Startup India register across 12 district labels, of which 19 carry DPIIT recognition. That works out at Rs 2,67,857 of approved Seed Fund money per registered company, though the scheme funds incubators rather than the register at large, and only a small number of companies ever receive any of it.

A note on the source's own arithmetic

The scheme reports Rs 2.3 crore as disbursed to startups in Sikkim, against Rs 3.1 crore disbursed to the incubators. Nationally the first of those figures exceeds the second, because the first and second application blocks overlap in the government's data, so the two are not directly comparable anywhere. We publish them as reported and treat the approved figure as the reliable one.

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.
