Frequently Asked Questions

Does every new company automatically qualify as a Startup India recognised entity?
No, recognition requires meeting DPIIT's specific criteria around incorporation age, turnover limit, and demonstrating innovation or scalability - not every new business automatically qualifies.
What tax benefit does DPIIT recognition actually provide?
Recognised startups can apply separately for income tax exemption under Section 80-IAC for 3 consecutive years out of their first 10 years, subject to an Inter-Ministerial Board approval - recognition itself is the first step toward this benefit.
Can an LLP apply for Startup India recognition?
Yes, registered LLPs meeting the eligibility criteria can apply, in addition to private limited companies and registered partnership firms.
Is DPIIT recognition the same as MSME/Udyam registration?
No, they are separate registrations with different benefits - many startups hold both, since MSME registration offers credit and procurement benefits while DPIIT recognition focuses on tax and IP benefits.
What happens if my startup crosses the turnover limit later?
Recognition benefits are generally tied to meeting the eligibility criteria; once a startup exceeds the prescribed turnover or age limit, some benefits may no longer apply going forward.
