This latest investment brings AstroTalk’s total funding to date to Rs 172 crore (about $29.5 million).

Investment Details

The recent fundraising was formalized through a special resolution passed by AstroTalk’s board, resulting in the issuance of 5,067 compulsory convertible preference shares. According to regulatory filings accessed from the Registrar of Companies (RoC), Left Lane Capital contributed Rs 58.3 crore, while Elev8 Capital added Rs 20 crore. This funding is part of a larger round, with AstroTalk reportedly in discussions to raise an additional $30 million.

Concurrently, profits increased by 41.7%, amounting to Rs 8.5 crore. Based on the current average revenue run rate, AstroTalk is projected to close FY24 with Rs 650 crore in revenue and Rs 100 crore in profit.

The platform boasts a network of 13,000 experts, offering predictions and advice on various life aspects such as marriage, love life, career, and health.

Competitive Landscape

AstroTalk’s recent funding round places it firmly among notable names in the online astrology and spirituality sector. Other companies like Ustav App, DevDham, InstaAstro, Vama, and Melooha have also secured significant funding during this period. Additionally, SriMandir’s parent company, AppsForBharat, is reportedly in talks to raise $15 million in a new funding round.
