Funding evidence, class by class, in every report. Never a "funded" boolean.

The register holds four classes of funding evidence and one self-declared checkbox. Every report prints them apart, names the state scheme registrations separately, and carries the Seed Fund ledger where public money exists.

  • Every pincode ranked, with the precision ladder
  • The 60 best-evidenced startups in one table

How the funding is evidenced

We hold no licensed funding feed, so "funded" here is an evidence trail rather than a round history. These classes are kept apart because they are not remotely the same claim.

  • Named on an investor portfolio 2
  • Named in an incubator portfolio 17
  • Named in an accelerator batch 2
  • Self-declared on the government form, unverified 1,314
  • Registered with a state startup scheme not evidence of funding 7

Funded companies we hold the most on

Ranked by how much evidence the startup carries, not by size, revenue or anything we would have to invent.

Questions people ask

How many funded startups are there in Kolkata?

1,330 of Kolkata's 11,455 registered companies (11.6%) carry a funding signal of some kind in our 2026-08 snapshot. "Some kind" is doing real work in that sentence: 2 are named on an investor portfolio, 17 are named in an incubator portfolio, 2 are named in an accelerator batch, 1,314 are self-declared on the government form, unverified. We hold no licensed funding feed, so this is an evidence trail and not a round history.

What does "on a state scheme" mean on this map?

7 companies in Kolkata are registered with a state startup scheme. That is a government-recorded fact and it is not evidence that anyone funded them: a scheme registration says a state department has them on file, nothing more. They appear on this map because they are evidenced, placed, publishable companies, and they are counted separately from the 1,330 carrying a funding signal.

Is every logo on this map one company?

Every logo is one company, and a logo with a "+" count stands for the companies too close to it to draw apart at this zoom; zooming in separates them. 365 are drawn, the ones placed at a locality or a street. 667 more are known only to the district, so they open as a list from the map instead: a logo at the district centre would read as an address. The panel says which resolution it is showing you.

Does a funding signal mean the company is still trading?

No. Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. A funding signal is evidence that money was raised at some point, or that the company said so on a government form. It is not a statement about today. How we counted.
