As per the National Cooperative Database (NCD), as on 15.07.2026, out of 8.53 lakh Cooperative Societies, 6.63 lakh are functional, 1.41 lakh are non-functional and 49,177 are under liquidation. The State-wise details of total number of Cooperative societies that are functional, non-functional and under-liquidation are attached at Annexure-3.
As on 15.07.2026, out of 6.63 lakh functional cooperative societies, 3.56 lakh are profit-making and 2.50 lakh are loss-making. Financial information is not available for 56,689 societies. The State-wise total no. of functional Cooperatives Societies, along with their Profit/ loss making status, is attached at Annexure-4.
The Ministry of Cooperation has taken proactive measures to convert Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACS), Dairy, and Fisheries Cooperatives into Multipurpose cooperative societies. This initiative aims to enhance business diversification, strengthen financial sustainability, and prevent closures by enabling cooperatives to engage in a wider range of economic activities. The NCD is used for identification of gaps in the geographical spread of cooperatives, thereby supporting the formation of new multipurpose PACS/dairy/fisheries cooperative societies. It also enables the development of the Cooperative Ranking Framework to promote healthy competition.
Additionally, the Ministry of Cooperation has set up Co-operative Rehabilitation, Reconstruction and Development Fund under section 63A of the Multi-State Cooperative Societies (MSCS) (Amendment) Act, 2023 for revival of sick multi-State cooperative societies and providing assistance for meeting infrastructural requirement.
