Exclusive: Zypp Electric raises $6.5 Mn in ongoing Series C B2B delivery and shared mobility startup Zypp Electric is raising Rs 55.4 crore ($6.5 million) from 16 investors, which seems to be part of the ongoing Series C funding round for the Gurugram-based company. The board at Zypp Electric has passed a special resolution to issue 564 Series C2 CCPS at an issue price of Rs 9,83,005 each to raise Rs 55.4 crore, its regulatory filing accessed from the Registrar of Companies shows. Individuals including Ajay Kumar Aggarwal, Samir Goenka, Narinder Bajaj, Kapil Kriplani, Vega Industries, Gagan Khanna, Supersonic Carrier, Nirmal K Bathwal, and 10 other investors will cumulatively participate during the investment. According to Entrackr’s estimates, the company will be valued at around $335-350 million. This seems to be part of an ongoing round, and the valuation may vary with further injection. According to the company, it may raise up to $50 million in the Series C fundraise. In May last year, Zypp kicked off the new round with a $15 million tranche led by ENEOS. The company was backed by IAN Fund, 9 Unicorns (now 100 Unicorns), Anthill Ventures, Eiman Abdullah Mahfood Al Qatar, and others. Founded by Akash Gupta and Rashi Agrawal in 2017, Zypp Electric is an EV-as-a-service platform offering electric vehicle rentals along with delivery services through its e-scooter fleet for gig workers. The company claims to have around 22,000 active vehicles in its fleet, with 15,000 in Delhi NCR, 4,000 in Bengaluru, and 1,200 in Mumbai. Zypp Electric witnessed significant 2.6X growth, with its operating revenue crossing Rs 290 crore during the fiscal year ended March 2024. However, in pursuit of scale, the losses for the firm rose 2.2X to Rs 91 crore in the same period.
