DOBRA raises Rs 1.5 Cr in seed round from D2C Insider Super Angels Fund DOBRA, a food and beverage brand, has raised Rs 1.5 crore in its seed funding led by the D2C Insider Super Angels Fund. The round saw participation from D2C founders and operators, marking the brand’s first institutional raise. The proceeds will be used to scale across modern retail outlets, food service channels, quick commerce platforms, and direct-to-consumer sales. Founded by Oxbow Brands, DOBRA is known for playful products such as pop goli soda, artisanal cotton candy, and tapioca crisps, which blend nostalgia with premium quality. Rahul Johar, co-founder of Oxbow Brands, said the funding is more than capital, it is an endorsement from entrepreneurs who have built category-defining consumer brands in India. “D2C Super Angels bring battle-tested insights that will help us scale faster,” he added. The brand aims to tap into India’s $170 billion FMCG market by offering differentiated, experience-led products that appeal to young, urban consumers. With this raise, DOBRA will strengthen operations, expand its product line, and deepen consumer trials, while laying the groundwork for international growth. D2C Insider provides funding and support to early-stage D2C startups and has a network of over 10,000 founders. The Super Angels Fund, introduced in October last year, focuses on investments in consumer-focused startups.

Recur Club launches Rs 150 Cr fund for D2C brands on QCP Recur Club, a debt marketplace for startups and SMEs, has launched a Rs 150 crore ($18 million) fund to accelerate the growth of D2C brands in the quick commerce sector. This initiative aims to provide growth and working capital for these brands to acquire additional inventory or boost marketing efforts. The fund targets loan disbursal within seven days. Recur Club’s debt offerings are designed to meet the unique financial needs of businesses across various revenue and profitability stages. The Indian quick commerce market is expected to expand at a CAGR of over 25% leading up to 2030, and the D2C sector is anticipated to exceed $60 billion by 2027. Recur Club says that this new fund aligns with its aim to fuel the growth of ‘Make-in-India’ startups, particularly in the quick commerce segment of the D2C market. Some notable brands that have benefited from its funding include Ustraa and Wellversed. “With more than half of the 300 consumer brands we've financed utilizing quick commerce platforms, it's clear that these businesses are primarily investing in scaling inventory to keep pace with consumer demand and employing strategic marketing efforts,” said Eklavya Gupta, CEO & co-founder of Recur Club. Recur Club offers loans to startups and businesses, ranging from Rs 50 lakhs to Rs 100 crore within 48 hours by linking their financial data. In collaboration with InCred, it has deployed Rs 300 crore in funding aimed at supporting early and mid-stage startups. Recur Club has committed to deploying Rs 2,000 crore in debt funding for startups and SMEs through Recur Scale and Rs 1,000 crore to MSMEs through Recur Swift in this financial year. As part of this initiative, the company has launched its "Recur Scale" facility, which offers up to Rs 100 crore in funding for individual startups or SMEs.
