The relatively new and fragile start-up ecosystem is not a solution to the larger problem of pauperisation of the working population of the country.

In May 2022, a report in the magazine, The Economist, claimed that “a novel confluence of forces stands to transform India’s economy over the next decade, improving the lives of 1.4 billion people and changing the balance of power in Asia. Technological leaps, the energy transition, and geopolitical shifts are creating new opportunities—and new tools to fix intractable problems.”

The locus of this transformation, according to this report, is a national ‘tech stack’ that India has rolled out. It is argued that this tech stack – a set of State-sponsored digital services, payments, tax systems, bank accounts, and a system of electronic identity linking ordinary citizens with these services – has turbocharged in India the world’s third-largest start-up scene, after the US and China.

In May 2022, India became home to 100 unicorns  (in business, a ‘unicorn’ refers to a start-up company with a value of over $1 billion) as the neo-banking start-up, Open, raised $50 million to enter the swiftly bludgeoning list of unicorns in the country.

By June 2022, three more companies had been added to this list. The Bengaluru-based software start-up LeadSquared has been the latest addition to the list of unicorns. The list includes familiar names, such as Zomato, Swiggy, Oyo, Quikr, Paytm, Snapdeal, Ola, MakeMyTrip, Flipkart, PhonePe, Byju’s, Unacademy, Lenskart, BigBasket, etc.
