Every engagement at Nyaya Grah is grounded in the relevant statute. For founders and counsel reviewing this matter, here is the foundation.
Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India
startupindia.gov.in â Recognition Module (separate portal from MCA / Income Tax)
DPIIT Startup India portal upgraded with faster review cycles (typical 5-7 days, down from 15+ days earlier). Section 80-IAC tax holiday extended until 31 March 2030 (vide Finance Act 2025) for startups incorporated before 31 March 2030. Inter-Ministerial Board (IMB) evaluation criteria refined â emphasis on innovation depth, market traction, and employment generation. Angel Tax exemption under S.56(2)(viib) became more flexible for DPIIT-recognised startups. Fund of Funds for Startups corpus increased.
No vague timelines. Here's the actual phase-wise breakdown for Startup India DPIIT Recognition in Deogarh.
Verify the four DPIIT criteria â (1) entity is Pvt Ltd / LLP / Registered Partnership (sole prop and OPC NOT eligible), (2) not exceeding 10 years from date of incorporation, (3) turnover < âš100 crore in any preceding FY, (4) working towards innovation, development, or improvement of products/services/processes, OR scalable business model with potential for employment generation. Original entity (not from split/reconstruction).
Incorporation certificate (COI), PAN of entity, brief one-page company write-up, website URL or pitch deck, founder profiles, customer/revenue evidence (if any), IP filings (patents/trademarks if any), awards/recognitions (if any), letter of recommendation (incubator, IIM/IIT, RBI-registered investor, etc. â optional but strengthens application).
Detailed narrative on â (a) innovation in product/service/process (NOT a "me-too"), (b) scalability and market potential, (c) problem being solved, (d) employment generation potential, (e) value proposition vs existing solutions. DPIIT rejects generic write-ups. Strong narrative is the difference between approval and rejection.
Application submitted on startupindia.gov.in with all documents uploaded. Self-certification declaration. Acknowledgement Number received. Application enters DPIIT review queue.
DPIIT review (typically 2-7 working days). Possible queries answered via portal. Recognition Certificate (DIPP/DPIIT certificate number) issued. Valid until entity is 10 years old OR turnover crosses âš100 Cr. Optional next-step: apply for Section 80-IAC tax holiday + Form 2 angel tax exemption.
Most counsel quote one number. We show you what goes where, so there is nothing to discover later.
| Component | Amount | Note |
|---|---|---|
| DPIIT recognition application | âš0 | FREE â Government of India initiative, no application fee |
| Professional fee (eligibility + drafting + submission) | âš4,999 | Strong innovation narrative + document curation |
| Section 80-IAC tax holiday application (optional, separate) | âš4,999 | After DPIIT recognition â Inter-Ministerial Board certificate |
| Section 56(2)(viib) Angel Tax exemption (optional, separate) | âš3,999 | Form 2 â for angel investor capital exemption |
| Miscellaneous (certified copies, courier) | âš200 â âš500 | Actuals |
Total estimate from 1999 ¡ final fee depends on entity size, document readiness, and city-specific stamp duty (see local jurisdiction above).
From hundreds of engagements, here are the patterns that cause founders and businesses to come back to us in distress. Avoid these and you've already won 70% of the matter.
DPIIT rejects "me-too" businesses. Strong narrative on what is novel/innovative/scalable is the difference between approval and rejection. Generic write-ups = standard rejection.
Only Pvt Ltd, LLP, and Registered Partnership are eligible. Sole Proprietorships and OPCs are NOT eligible. Convert entity first if needed.
Strict cutoff â exceeding 10 years from incorporation date automatically disqualifies. No exceptions even with strong innovation.
Any FY where turnover > âš100 Cr permanently disqualifies. Cannot apply retrospectively.
Recognition alone does NOT give tax holiday. Section 80-IAC is a SEPARATE application requiring Inter-Ministerial Board certificate after recognition.
Angel Tax exemption (S.56(2)(viib)) is separate Form 2 filing after recognition. Many founders assume recognition auto-covers angel tax â it does not.
New entity formed by splitting or reconstructing an existing business is NOT considered "original" and is disqualified.
These are the signals â observed across the profession â that your money and matter are about to be handled poorly. We list them so you can vet anyone, including us.
