Welcome to the AP Startup Hub’s funding tips hub. Here you’ll find short, useful advice pulled from our latest articles—everything from tax write‑offs to franchise costs, loan options, and smart ways to invest your capital. Whether you’re launching a tech venture in Hyderabad or running a small shop in Visakhapatnam, these tips can help you stretch every rupee and keep the cash flowing.
Quick Wins for Better Cash Flow
First up, look at what you can write off today. Our guide on Small Business Tax Deductions in 2025 shows you the common expenses that the tax man lets you deduct—office supplies, travel, even a portion of your home internet. Keep receipts in a dedicated folder (digital or paper) and log them weekly; you’ll avoid the end‑of‑year scramble.
Next, explore government schemes. The Startup India eligibility article breaks down who qualifies for funding, tax holidays, and mentorship. If you meet the criteria, register early—slots fill fast and the benefits compound over time.
Got a franchise dream? Check out the McDonald's and KFC franchise cost breakdowns. They reveal not just the upfront fees but ongoing royalty rates, which can affect your break‑even point. Use those numbers to build a realistic cash‑flow model before you sign anything.
Long‑Term Financing Strategies
When you need bigger money, think beyond banks. The piece on Best Ways to Find Startup Investors in India outlines three channels: online platforms, networking events, and angel groups. Start with the free online portals, then attend at least one local pitch night each month to build relationships.
If you’re an NRI, the NRI loan guide explains how to secure financing while living abroad. The key is to have a stable Indian address and proof of income—most banks ask for a recent tax return and a bank statement from India.
Investing your surplus wisely also fuels growth. Our article on Investing 25 Lakhs for Monthly Income suggests a mix of debt funds, dividend‑paying stocks, and a small slice of real‑estate REITs. Diversify to smooth out returns and keep a rainy‑day fund for unexpected expenses.
Finally, don’t ignore export opportunities. The guide on How to Sell Indian Products in the USA walks you through licensing, shipping, and compliance. A successful export line can add a new revenue stream without needing extra office space.
Put these tips into action: pick one quick win, apply it this week, and track the results. Then move on to a longer‑term strategy and set a monthly check‑in. Funding isn’t a one‑off event; it’s a habit of staying informed and adjusting your plan as you grow.
