Government announces Rs. 10,000 crore funds to back tech start-ups

Indian government has announced Rs 10,000-crore electronics development fund to enthusiast start-ups attain the next level, according to a report published by Economic Times.
 

"It is in the process of finalization and we will get an approval very soon," a source in the ministry of information technology told TOI.
