How to Apply for Startup India Seed Fund Scheme (SISFS) For Startups

The selection process for the Startup India Seed Fund Scheme begins with startups submitting their applications directly to their preferred incubators. These incubators conduct initial eligibility checks and shortlisting of applications. Subsequently, the Incubator Seed Management Committee (ISMC), which comprises various experts, evaluates the shortlisted startups. This evaluation may include a requirement for the startup to deliver a pitch or presentation before the ISMC. The final selection decision is communicated to the applicant within 45 days of the incubator receiving the complete application.
