The ledger
Every approved incubator in Kerala, 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 startup for it.
The register this money sits in
Kerala has 15,697 companies on the Startup India register across 51 district labels, of which 8,854 carry DPIIT recognition. That works out at Rs 11,467 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 16.4 crore as disbursed to startups in Kerala, which is more than the Rs 14.5 crore it reports as disbursed to the incubators in the first place. The first and second application blocks overlap in the government's data, so the two figures are not directly comparable. We publish the inconsistency rather than quietly averaging it away, and we 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.
