India’s per capita income increased by only a 1% annualized rate in three decades after its independence. In 2018 its GDP growth rate was a mere 6.386%. The majority of India’s population is in the lower-middle-class category. This economic condition demands a better ecosystem to uplift and encourages startups that will help reduce unemployment in India. India has become a status-driven society where risk-taking and audacious behavior are not considered ideal. If this situation continues India will soon become a nation of clerks and government servants. With unemployment rising and competitive exams getting tougher, it’s getting hard for talent to get what it deserves. The below article highlights the challenges faced by the Indian Startup Ecosystem and why we need it. Keywords: start-up, economic development, indian economy, social media, start-up ecosystem.
