The T-Hub Foundation Program is one of several concurrent programs T-Hub runs.

Application Process

T-Hub separately runs a DPIIT-backed Seed Fund (under SISFS) that can provide up to Rs 50 lakh, where applicants visit the Startup India Seed Fund Scheme portal, create a founder profile, and select T-Hub Foundation as their preferred incubator; applications then undergo initial screening by T-Hub's internal evaluation committee, shortlisted founders pitch before a panel of experts, investors, and industry mentors, and selected startups receive seed funding plus 12 months of incubation support including mentors, networks, and infrastructure.
