Methodology
Company records come from founder submissions and manual research. Each one is reviewed before it appears on the Hyderabad startup map. Sector labels are normalised (GCC sub-types are grouped as "GCC"), and listings tagged only "Hyderabad" are left out of the area ranking. Hiring signals and open roles come from direct syncs with employer applicant tracking systems (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Workable and Recruitee) and company career pages. Duplicate requisitions with the same title are collapsed into one role, so role counts measure distinct jobs, not raw postings. Percentages are rounded to one decimal place. The data refreshes daily.
