As Indian startups face turbulence in the global funding winter, experts on Monday said they need to reserve cash, create a long-term goal and adopt a culture of customer feedback to survive in 2023. On the occasion of the 'National Startup Day', envisioned by Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="Orion">Narendra Modi</keyword> last year, industry experts said that the founders must continuously monitor the trends which are happening in the world. Indian startups fired more than 18,000 employees in 2022 amid a funding winter and macroeconomic uncertainty. "Investing in R&amp;D can be one of the finest ways to actually tackle disruption. Make sure that as a business, you keep some of your profits or your balance sheet reserves for investing into R&amp;D to actually learn more," Dr Ritesh Malik, Director, <keyword id="6365866" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="alliance" source="Orion">Alliance</keyword> for <keyword id="2947744" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="digital-india-foundation" source="Orion">Digital India Foundation</keyword>, or <keyword id="1429787" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="adif" source="Orion">ADIF</keyword>, told IANS. "If you feel that there is a platform like Instagram where the go-to-market strategy is more efficient, start learning Instagram and start promoting your products there," he added. According to <keyword id="6061635" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="tejas-khoday" source="Orion">Tejas Khoday</keyword>, Co-Founder and CEO of trading platform FYERS, this year is special as India has emerged to be the third largest startup ecosystem in the world. "While the past year was turbulent with IPOs of several well-known startups not doing too well, the ongoing funding winter and related layoffs, in the long run, all this will be a blip on the radar," he said. That said, this will help the ecosystem to mature and hopefully and we will see startups achieve a better balance between scale and profitability in 2023, Khoday noted. While interacting with over 150 startups, <keyword id="2238662" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="pm-modi" source="Orion">PM Modi</keyword> last year announced the commemoration of National Startup Day on January 16 every year.

According to Malik, startups must hear back from their customers. "The more you hear from your customers, the more you will be able to understand their changing needs. And the more your product becomes dynamic and you constantly change that product to the whims and fantasies of the customer," he noted. <keyword id="3337958" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="ravish-naresh" source="Orion">Ravish Naresh</keyword>, CEO and Co-founder of Khatabook, said that there is a stronger acknowledgment of Indian startups' role in solving core problems of emerging economies to bridge the socio-economic gaps.

<ul><li>The biggest menace for the Indian startups angel tax was not addressed in the Budget 2019. </li><li>Indian entrepreneurs are disappointed with the exclusion of startup policies. </li><li>However, Finance Minister Piyush Goyal included artificial intelligence in the government’s Vision 2030, which could boost the growth of AI startups. </li></ul>Indian startups had big hopes from the Budget 2019 but the government failed to bring anything on board for the entrepreneurs in the country. The impact of startups in India was measured with jobs created in the country. “With job seekers becoming job creators, India has become the world’s second largest start-up hub,” said Finance Minister Piyush Goyal during his Budget speech. However, the Budget failed to cover important aspects that startups looked forward to – most importantly the Angel Tax menace. From entrepreneurs to investors, everyone was looking at angel tax being removed. “With the upcoming budget, I wish the government addresses problems being faced by startups over taxes levied on angel funds,” Harshil Mathur, cofounder of Razorpay, had said before the budget had been announced. Meanwhile, Dr Ritesh Malik, one of the most active <keyword id="6365770" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="angel-investors">angel investors</keyword> in the country and co-founder of Innov8, had expected that the government will bring an instrumental change in policies which will transform, safeguard and support the startup ecosystem. Finance Minister mentioned that special benefits and incentives were given to small businesses and start-ups while also simplifying overall compliance processes. However, considering the <keyword id="3209713" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Startup-India-initiative">Startup India initiative</keyword> is considered to be one of the most important initiatives of the Modi government, there was more awaited. While the government did mention Digital India as one of its initiatives for Vision 2030, covering artificial intelligence and robotics, the Budget failed to accommodate expectations of entrepreneurs. “Looks like the government doesn't realise the potential of growth that startups can contribute to the overall economy and the jobs creation situation in the country. Ignoring the pain areas for startups and the ecosystem is sending wrong signals to the youth of the country. Budget 2019 for startups in India was too much of expectation, but too less was delivered. The Startup josh is low and something needs to be done!,” said Deep Malhotra, Co-Founder, BECKFriends.com.
