Navata Supply Chain Solutions (Navata SCS), a tech-enabled B2B last-mile integrated logistics platform, has raised Rs 13.5 crore ($1.52 million) in a new funding round led by Abyro Capital, with participation from existing investor Equanimity Investments, which had led the company’s previous round. The proceeds will be used to help Navata SCS accelerate its pan-India expansion, strengthen its AI-led logistics infrastructure, and enhance enterprise solutions for large and mid-market customers across manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce. Founded by siblings Hima Parvataneni and Vineel Parvataneni, Navata SCS aims to modernize India’s traditional B2B logistics ecosystem, which has remained largely unchanged since the 1980s. The company is building a tech-driven logistics backbone that uses data intelligence and operational excellence to deliver scalable, reliable, and cost-effective logistics solutions across rural and urban India. This marks Abyro Capital’s first investment in India, following its earlier US bets in NavaFlex Inc. and Monetize360. The operator-led venture firm focuses on early-stage investments across deep-tech, infra-AI, and vertical SaaS sectors. With this funding, Navata SCS plans to expand its nationwide network, onboard new enterprise clients, and invest in AI-native predictive supply chain platforms to create a more connected, efficient, and resilient logistics ecosystem for Bharat.
