Udaan, a business-to-business ecommerce platform, has closed a $114 million funding round led by existing investors M&G Prudential (UK) and Lightspeed Venture Partners.
The funding round was executed at a flat valuation of $1.8 billion, with the capital aimed at deepening Udaan's presence across categories like FMCG and HoReCa segments.
The fresh capital will also be used to expand Udaan's private label brands, especially in the staples category, as the company advances towards its public market debut.
Udaan reported operating revenue of Rs 5,707 crore in FY24 with flat growth, indicating major operational restructuring efforts to reduce losses; the company aims to achieve full group Ebitda profitability in the next 18 months.
