Startup India – Become a job-giver, not a job-seeker. The effect of this appeal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi made many years ago is now visible. Instead of working in someone’s company, youth are now preferring to form a company. Since 2015, nearly 23 thousand youth have owned their company.
Startups Reached 20 Thousand To 23 Thousand
Going to the previous figures of the Ministry of Industry, last year there were less than 20 thousand startups. But the latest figures of the ministry itself have brought optimistic news. The youth are starting a company with new ideas. Not only this, so far more than two and a half million people have been given jobs.

Central Government Gives Such a Discount To a Startup India
PM Modi started Startup India Scheme on 15 August 2015 from the ramparts of the Red Fort. Under this scheme, it was not only to prepare young entrepreneurs but also to make the youth to create employment opportunities. The government has established a fund of 10 thousand crores for this from the very beginning. Under this, the young entrepreneur is exempted from tax for three years and there is no investigation during the first 3 years.

A report released in 2017 by software giant IBM suggests that lack of finance is a major reason in India. These are the reasons that more than 90 percent of startups die within the first 5 years. Whereas, in such circumstances, Indian start-ups have given jobs to a fair number of people due to the efforts of PM Modi.
