The company register lists 8,877 active IT companies with a registered office in Chennai. 1,254 of them can also be matched to a business-directory listing, which is a stronger sign that they are trading.
By registered capital among companies with operating signals: Pvp Ventures Limited (₹245 crore); Sify Technologies Limited (₹152 crore); Tvs Interconnect Systems Private Limited (₹99.5 crore). Registered capital is not the same as revenue or headcount.
Thygarayanagar has the most (378), then Neelankarai (321) and Ekkaduthangal (296).
83% have less than ₹10 lakh in registered capital and 4% have ₹1 crore or more; the median is ₹1 lakh.
1,997 were incorporated before 2010 and 296 before 2000; 2,538 hold a GST registration.
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.
