Between September 15 and 20, 2025, Indian startups raised over $360 million, with PharmEasy leading the charts. While the number may look like just another funding update, it is a sign of renewed momentum in the startup ecosystem.
Over the past year, funding has been more cautious, with investors focusing on profitability and sustainable growth. But the fact that startups across sectors are still able to secure large cheques shows that capital is flowing back selectively towards businesses with strong fundamentals and clear growth paths.
PharmEasy topping the list also tells an important story. Healthcare and health-tech continue to attract deep interest, not just because of post-pandemic relevance, but because these businesses solve real, everyday problems for millions of Indians.
This signals that investors are betting more on utility-driven sectors rather than vanity ideas.
So, this week’s funding activity highlights that investors’ confidence is returning in a disciplined way and startups are not chasing growth but building real value.
