Matching Grant Scheme

Matches up to 25% of a Goa startup's private funding round, capped at ₹25 lakh.

Once the Start-up Promotion Cell completes due diligence, up to 20 approved startups a year receive 25% of the round they raised, capped at ₹25 lakh, paid out within 60 days of approval. Only spending made after the 2017 policy took effect, and paid digitally, counts toward the claim, and founders can apply online through the Goa Startup Mission portal at any point in the financial year.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
