Seed funding drops 25% in 2024 as VCs retreat

Seed funding in India experienced a 25% decline in calendar year 2024 as investors remained cautious. Despite this, startups managed to secure $11.3 billion in overall funding, marking a 6% increase compared to the previous year. Pre-IPO and late-stage funding rounds gained popularity due to the shorter paths to liquidity and stronger returns they offer. Seed-stage funding dropped to $971 million from $1.3 billion in the previous year. The decline in seed funding can be attributed to new venture capitalists pulling back from the market, while institutional investors continue to invest steadily. Deep-tech funding, on the other hand, saw an 11% growth. Late-stage funding and early-stage startups performed well in 2024.
