What this state's numbers show
Chandigarh is a single-district union territory, so every entry sits in one place and there is no internal distribution to read. Two other things stand out. Its recognition rate, 37.8%, is the lowest of any state or territory with more than a thousand entries, against 51.2% nationally. And the gap between our count and the government's census facet is the widest on the site: 5.5%, or 108 entries. No incubator here holds a Seed Fund approval, despite the regional university cluster the city is known for.
We checked our count against the government's
The Startup India API returns facet counts computed over the entire register on every search response. That is an independent number we did not produce, so it is a real check on our own sweep rather than a restatement of it.
| Our count | 1,869 |
|---|---|
| Government census | 1,977 |
| Difference | -108 (-5.5%) |
A difference is expected and is not an error in either number. Ours counts resolved companies after merging duplicate profiles; the government's counts profiles. We also exclude records we may not republish.
Districts
Districts with enough records to publish. These are the labels the register carries, which are not always administrative districts.
About this data
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.
