Lab-grown diamond brand Jewelbox has raised $3.2 million in a pre-Series A funding round led by V3 Ventures, with participation from Atrium Angels, Dexter Ventures, Infinyte Club, Samarthya Capital, and existing investor JITO Incubation & Innovation Foundation (JIIF). In March 2024, the Kolkata-based startup had raised Rs 3.7 crore in seed funding from JIIF. The proceeds will be used to grow its store network, build brand awareness, and hire across key departments. Founded in May 2022 by siblings Vidita Kochar Jain and Nipun Kochar, Jewelbox sells lab-grown diamond jewellery through both online and offline channels. The firm reported an annual revenue run rate (ARR) of Rs 38 crore for FY25, up from Rs 16 crore the previous year. Jewelbox currently runs eight stores in six cities—Delhi, Gurgaon, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kolkata, and Guwahati—and aims to expand to 30 stores by the end of 2025. In the lab-grown diamond space, Jewelbox will compete with a clutch of firms, including COLUXE, Fiona Diamonds, Limelight Lab Grown Diamonds, and Firefly Diamonds.
