The last week of June saw a significant surge in venture capital funding for Indian startups, with a 568% increase to $374 million compared to the previous weekโs $57 million. This boost was driven by a larger number of deals, notably a $100 million raise by tech startup Raphe mPhibr. It marked the third-best week of the year. Meanwhile, startups like GIVA, Wiom, and EKA Mobility partook in key fundraising activities. However, external economic challenges persist.

Venture capital (VC) funding for Indian startups in July remained sluggish, with the fourth week's total reaching $120 million across 21 deals, slightly down from the previous week's $124 million. The funding was evenly split between early- and late-stage investments, with minimal growth-stage capital. This trend, driven by macroeconomic uncertainties and cautious investor sentiment, reflects a downturn from previous $200 million weekly ranges, except for interest in artificial intelligence. Notable transactions included Semiconductors startup Netrasemi and retail chain SuperK.
