The last week of April was active for Indian startups, with funding across lifestyle, fintech, AI, healthtech, and space tech. There was a healthy mix of seed and Series A rounds, reflecting cautious optimism. Seed-stage bets like Uni Seoul, Mugafi, and SCANDALous Foods show appetite for unique consumer and tech-first brands. Even niche plays like lab-grown diamonds and Indian sweets found backing. Debt funding stood out too - Care.fi and CollegeDekho raised non-dilutive capital, signaling trust in their revenue strength. Bigger rounds in HexaHealth, QNu, and Fuze reflect long-term faith in core tech infrastructure. Kult’s $20M round and Anveshan’s Rs 48 Cr raise indicate growing interest in tech-led D2C. Meanwhile, SatLeo Labs and Vividobots represent investor curiosity in futuristic verticals. Overall, it’s not about flashy apps anymore - investors are chasing both fundamentals and innovation.
