Questions

When is "Before You Apply: The Mistakes to Avoid in Your Grant Application" and how long does it run?

It is a live online session on Monday, 24 August at 10:30 am IST, and it runs for about an hour. The session is in English.

Who is the speaker?

Aparna Kaicker, Co-founder, Startup Grants India. Aparna has 15 years in corporate strategy, M&A and valuation. She joined Startup Grants India as co-founder to help founders find and win non-dilutive funding — government, corporate, CSR, university and international grants — without missing a scheme that was actually meant for them.

How much does it cost?

25 credits if your wallet has enough. Otherwise ₹99, GST inclusive — that is exactly what you are charged, with nothing added at checkout.

Where is it held, and how do I join?

It is held live on Google Meet. The joining link is emailed to the address you register with before the session starts, so register with an address you actually check.

Do I need an account on Startup Grants India to register?

No. You register with just your email address — no account, no password. If you are already signed in, your account email is filled in for you and the seat is linked to your account.

Will I get an invoice?

Yes. A GST invoice is issued automatically and emailed to the address you registered with, right after the payment succeeds.

Who is this session for?

Indian founders and startup teams who are considering applying for government grants, or who have applied and been rejected without a clear reason why. It assumes no prior grant experience.

Is a grant guaranteed if I attend?

No, and nobody can promise that. The session covers how reviewers assess applications and what makes one competitive — the decision always rests with the funding body.

Can I ask questions during the session?

Yes. It is a live session, not a recording, and there is time for questions about your own situation.

About

A one-hour live session on the mistakes that kill grant applications early — often before a reviewer reaches the merits of your idea.

Most rejections aren't bad luck. They're predictable: applying under the wrong entity, missing a mandatory eligibility criterion, or pitching a product that doesn't map to what the scheme is actually funding. We walk through the failure modes we see most often, and what to fix before you spend months on the next application.

What we cover

  • The eligibility checks that silently disqualify you
  • Entity structure and registration gaps reviewers notice first
  • How to tell if your story matches the scheme's mandate

Live on Google Meet. The joining link is emailed to you before the session.
