Best Smart Cities Companies in India

The 215 best Smart Cities companies in India in 2026, ranked by funding and momentum. Funding, investors, founders, valuation, tech stack and live signals. Top: Statiq.

47have raised

India's Smart Cities startup ecosystem ranks here by disclosed equity funding and recent momentum, with 215 companies tracked and $102M in total disclosed capital. That's a modest funding pool, but the earned revenue underneath it tells a different story. Across 62 filers, the combined revenue pool hits $99M, with a median of $98,128 and median YoY growth of 55%. Ceinsys Tech Limited alone booked $49M in revenue, up 65% year on year, and cleared $7M in net income, which is 318 times the sector median. So when you're scanning this directory, don't let funding figures do all the talking.

The global smart cities market was valued at roughly $511.6B in 2022 and is forecast to reach $1,114.4B by 2027, a 15.6% CAGR driven by 5G rollouts, public safety infrastructure, and government PPP models. India's version of that story leans heavily on state-backed capital, with investors like the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and RTBI among the most active backers here. EV technology threads through the hottest emerging themes, from powertrain advancements to next-generation drive systems. As startups push India's Smart Cities Mission forward, the companies generating real, filed revenue are the ones I'd watch first.
