Exclusive: Rainmatter Capital-backed Age Care Labs to kick off Series B round Eldercare platform Age Care Labs, which operates brands Emoha and Epoch, is raising Rs 50 crore (approximately $6 million) in its Series B round from Cork Products, Plutus Wealth Management, and other investors. The board at Emoha has passed a special resolution to issue 22,87,596 Series B preference shares at an issue price of Rs 218.6 each to raise the amount, according to the company’s regulatory filings sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). As per the filings, the company has already received around Rs 31 crore from Cork Products, Plutus Wealth Management, Founders Collective Fund, Keymarrisa Realtors Private Limited, and individual investors, including Neeraj Aggarwal and Utpal Hemendra Sheth. The remaining funds are expected to be infused shortly. The company said the proceeds will be used to augment its capital base, meet long-term financial requirements, and for general corporate purposes. This appears to be part of a larger Series B round, with the possibility of raising additional capital in the ongoing tranche. As per Entrackr’s estimates, the company will be valued at around Rs 500 crore (approximately $59 million) post-allotment. The valuation could rise further if it secures additional funding in the ongoing round. Age Care Labs, which runs in-home eldercare platform Emoha and assisted-living and dementia care chain Epoch, offers subscription-based services including 24/7 emergency support, health monitoring, wellness programs, and community engagement for seniors. Epoch follows an asset-light model by leasing properties and partnering with operators, while the broader company scales through franchise partnerships, institutional tie-ups, and acquisitions. The two brands together serve over 60,000 seniors across 120 cities. The company has raised over $20 million to date, including an $11 million pre-Series B round in 2023 led by Rainmatter Capital (the investment arm of Zerodha) and Gruhas (a venture capital fund co-founded by Nikhil Kamath and Abhijeet Pai).
