India is experiencing its very own Startup Gold Rush. But more than 90% of the capital invested in Indian startups comes from outside of India, while Indian investors are still figuring out how it all works.
After two successful cohorts, Inc42 is back with AngelX 3.0 – India’s first-ever live angel investing program to master the art and science of angel investing from India’s top 1% of investors.
AngelX has already created 100+ new angel investors who have gone on to invest in 500+ startups, deploying more than ₹50 crore in capital.
India is on the brink of an economic revolution. We’re witnessing a transformation unlike anything before – and it’s happening at breakneck speed.
From economic liberalisation in 1991, it took us 33 years to hit the $4 trillion GDP mark. But what’s truly remarkable is that we’re on track to double that in the next 6 years, by 2030.
Let that sink in: 33 years for the first $4 trillion, but the next $4 trillion? Just 6 years!
This is not just another phase of growth, it’s the fastest wealth creation era India has ever seen, and at the epicentre of this revolution are startups.
We’re talking about an ecosystem brimming with potential, fueled by innovation, and ready to disrupt industries. The numbers tell the story:
- 1 lakh+ registered startups in India
- 118 unicorns valued at $354 billion
- 112+ soonicorns valued at $200 billion
- $150 billion+ invested in Indian startups since 2014
The momentum is building, and India is experiencing its very own Startup Gold Rush.
But there’s a catch: More than 90% of the capital invested in Indian startups comes from outside of India. Indian investors are putting in less than 10%. What does that mean?
A huge chunk of profits is flowing right out of India. And while we’re excited about global interest, wouldn’t it be nice if Indian investors got a bigger piece of the pie?
The reason for low domestic investor participation is that startups are a relatively new asset class, and many Indian investors are still figuring out how it all works.
More importantly, angel investing is not for the faint-hearted or the ill-prepared. It requires more than just capital — it demands foresight and vision, sharp instincts, a keen sense to observe opportunities, and access to a network that can get you in the room where deals happen.
This is why Inc42 launched AngelX in 2022.
