Private Equity & Venture Capital (PE-VC) Investments In India See Strong Growth

India’s Growth-PE stage companies attracted nearly $1.1 billion in private equity-venture capital (PE-VC) investments in the first two months of 2025, according to a recent report.

This marks a significant increase from $594 million recorded in the same period last year, as per data from research firm Venture Intelligence.

The report noted a rise in PE-VC funding for mature startups and companies backed by large business groups seeking growth capital.

However, the figures exclude investments in the real estate sector.

The Growth-PE category includes investments of over $20 million, ranging from Seed to Series D funding rounds.

Another report highlighted a 69.7% year-on-year surge in venture capital (VC) funding for Indian startups, reaching $883.2 million in January 2025.

Deal volume also increased by 40.9%, climbing from 93 deals in January 2024 to 131 this year, according to GlobalData.

India accounted for 9.9% of global VC deals in January 2025, with a 3.6% share in total deal value.

The growing investment inflows indicate rising investor confidence, as startups continue to secure larger funding rounds, said Aurojyoti Bose, lead analyst at GlobalData.

Additionally, India remains among the top five global markets for VC activity in terms of both deal volume and value.

Between January and November 2024, venture capital funding in India reached $16.77 billion across 888 deals, reflecting a 14.1% increase in investment value and a 21.8% rise in deal count compared to the same period in 2023, as per data from IBEF.
