इस ग्रांट के बारे में
The Department of Industries & Commerce, Government of Punjab, gives a seed grant of up to ₹15,00,000 (₹15 Lakh) per DPIIT-recognized startup under the Startup Punjab program. There is no explicit upper cap on the number of beneficiaries.
The money can go towards proof of concept development (initial research, feasibility studies), advanced prototype creation (material costs, engineering, testing), market validation studies (customer surveys, pilot programs) and initial commercialization efforts (early marketing, sales strategy development).
Your startup must hold valid DPIIT recognition, be registered and actively operating in Punjab, and offer an innovation-led product or service. Startups at the prototype or Proof of Concept (PoC) stage are strongly preferred. A recommendation from a Punjab-based recognized incubator is preferred but not mandatory.
The framework encourages engagement with Punjab-based recognized incubators. They can give indirect access to expert mentorship, networking with industry leaders and investors, and a collaborative co-working environment. The Department is the state's nodal agency for industrial development and investment promotion.
