ABSTRACT: This study examines the crucial role of entrepreneurial finance in the development of startup companies in India and highlights the challenges these companies face in securing funding. In India’s rapidly growing economy, startups are an essential driver of innovation, employment, and economic growth. However, despite their potential, startups frequently encounter financial constraints that hinder their growth and sustainability. This research explores the types of financing available to startups, including venture capital, angel investors, government grants, and crowd funding, as well as newer funding avenues like fintech platforms.

The study also investigates the factors affecting funding availability, such as investor risk tolerance, startup scalability, market size, and regulatory constraints. Challenges specific to the Indian context, including bureaucratic hurdles, stringent lending norms, and limited access to venture capital outside major urban centers, are analyzed. By identifying these obstacles, this study aims to suggest viable strategies for improving funding access for startups.

Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and an analysis of funding patterns and investor behavior, this study provides insights into how India’s startup ecosystem can be supported by tailored financial models. The findings are relevant for policymakers, investors, and entrepreneurs who seek to foster a more inclusive financial environment for startups in India.

Keywords: Entrepreneurial finance, startups, funding challenges, venture capital, angel investors, fintech, India startup ecosystem.
