Companies incorporated in 1998

27,847 companies were incorporated in 1998. 28 years on, this cohort represents an established tier of the Indian corporate register. 10,233 of those companies (37%) are currently marked as active on MCA records. The remaining 17,614 have since been struck off, dissolved, amalgamated, or placed in other non-active states — a natural attrition pattern visible across every annual cohort on the MCA register. The 1998 cohort was most heavily weighted toward Business Services, Trading, Community, personal and Social Services — these were the NIC industry codes that captured the largest share of new incorporations that year. Geographically, Delhi, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu contributed the highest number of incorporations in 1998, reflecting the concentration of India's corporate formation activity in its major commercial states.
