Focus Keyword: funding round recap
Introduction
Before 2020, consumer apps, food delivery, and fintech accounted for the majority of startup investments in India, with little attention paid to innovation at the infrastructure level. Tech-first industries like consumer, SaaS, and fintech dominated venture capital activity between 2014 and 2020, according to industry reports like Bain & Company’s India Venture Capital Report.
In 2025, funding trends are shifting toward deeper, infrastructure-level innovation across enterprises and emerging tech.
Notable Funding Rounds – 2025
- Plenome Tech raised ₹6.5 Cr in seed funding from Manish Gandhi & Ovington Capital — deep tech and AI in the bio space.
- Yali Capital closed a ₹893 Cr alternative investment fund (AIF) to support India’s deep tech startups.
- Neysa Networks raised $50 million from Matrix Partners, Nexus Venture Partners, and NTTVC to develop GenAI infrastructure.
