70% have less than ₹10 lakh in registered capital and 12% have ₹1 crore or more; the median is ₹1.3 lakh.

Company counts come from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs registry (active companies; the snapshot covers incorporations through 2022, so newer companies are not counted) and from business-directory listings collected in 2026. Paid-up capital is registered share capital, not turnover or size. Coverage of some incorporation years is uneven, so counts are best read as a floor.
