Eggoz, a consumer brand for eggs, is raising Rs 125 crore, approximately ($14.7 million) in its Series C round led by Gaja Capital with the participation of existing investors IvyCap Ventures and Redbright Partners. The board at Eggoz has passed a special resolution to issue 1 equity and 15,334 Series C preference shares at an issue price of Rs 81,511 each to raise Rs 125 crore or $14.7 million, its regulatory filing accessed from the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. Gaja Capital will spearhead the round with Rs 100 crore, while IvyCap Ventures and Redbright Partners will inject Rs 20.95 crore and Rs 4.05 crore, respectively. According to Entrackr’s estimates, the company will be valued at around Rs 480-500 crore or $55-58 million post-money. This marks a 60% increase in the valuation when compared to its last round. Founded in 2017 in Bihar by Abhishek Negi, Aditya Singh, and Uttam Kumar, Eggoz operates an asset-light, farmer-led model that ensures fresh eggs reach retailers within 24 hours. The brand has scaled its presence across Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Jaipur, Lucknow, and several non-metro cities. In a bid to diversify, Eggoz has also forayed into ready-to-cook offerings such as momos, burger patties, nuggets, and more. Eggoz has raised over $27 million in total funding so far. This includes an $8.8 million Series B round led by IvyCap Ventures. Before this, the company had secured $3.5 million in its Series A round and Rs 3.7 crore during its seed stage. The company has yet to file its FY25 numbers. Eggoz has recorded a 33.6% year-on-year increase in its revenue to Rs 73.1 crore in FY24, while the losses of the firm reduced by 24% to Rs 25 crore in the same period.

Eggoz’s revenue from operations rose 78% year-on-year to Rs 130 crore in FY25 from Rs 73 crore in FY24, according to its standalone financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Founded in 2017 in Bihar by Abhishek Negi, Aditya Singh, and Uttam Kumar, Eggoz operates an asset-light, farmer-led supply chain model that enables fresh eggs to reach retailers within 24 hours. Over the years, the company has expanded its presence across key markets, including Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Jaipur, and Lucknow. The sale of eggs remained the sole contributor to Eggoz’s operating revenue in FY25. That said, the company has recently expanded beyond shell eggs by foraying into the ready-to-cook segment with offerings such as momos, burger patties, and nuggets. On the expense side, procurement of eggs continued to be the largest cost centre, accounting for nearly 67% of total expenditure. Procurement costs increased to Rs 103 crore in FY25, largely in line with the company’s revenue growth. Employee benefit expenses rose to Rs 20 crore during the year, including Rs 3 crore towards ESOP-related costs. Freight, advertising, rent, and other overheads pushed Eggoz’s total expenditure to Rs 154 crore in FY25, up from Rs 100 crore in the previous fiscal. Despite higher operating expenses, improved scale helped Eggoz reduce its net losses by 8% to Rs 23 crore in FY25 from Rs 25 crore in FY24. The company also reported improvements in EBITDA, return on capital employed (ROCE), and its expense-to-revenue multiple during the year. According to the company, Eggoz reached a peak brand annual revenue run rate (ARR) of Rs 200 crore and achieved EBITDA breakeven in Q4 FY25, driven by strong consumer demand and expanded distribution. Eggoz has raised over $32 million in funding to date. This includes a $20 million round led by Gaja Capital. Prior to this, the company raised $8.8 million in a Series B round led by IvyCap Ventures, $3.5 million in Series A funding, and Rs 3.7 crore during its seed stage.
