Venture funding for Indian startups showed signs of recovery in August after slipping 38% in July. Although the total inflow remained under the $1 billion mark, the rebound was driven by late stage and growth stage deals. Fintech emerged as the top funded sector, followed by e-commerce and healthtech, while segments like agritech and edtech continued to see little to no activity. At the same time, the government’s crackdown on gaming companies has triggered shutdowns and forced several players to pivot, leaving the sector in a battle for survival.

Startup funding activity in India fell to its lowest point this year in July, with a 38% decline month on month from $960 million in June to just $598 million. The absence of any $100 million plus deals highlighted the cautious sentiment among investors. Notably, without a couple of pre-IPO rounds and large checks for India cum US-based startups, the total would have been closer to $400 million. Despite the sluggish funding inflow, July brought good news on the public markets front as two startups made their stock market debut and more than six filed DRHPs, showing a clear gap between weak private funding and a strong IPO pipeline.

India’s agritech sector, once buoyed by strong momentum in 2021–2022, is now grappling with slowing growth and limited investor interest.
