In a big leap up, Noida-based astrology platform AstroTalk is in talks to raise USD 50 million (~INR 429 crore) in a new funding round. This Series B as confirmed by multiple sources, will put the company in the unicorn club with a valuation of USD 1.3 to 1.5 billion (~INR 11,161 – 12,878 crore)—five times its previous valuation of USD 300 million (~INR 2,576 crore).
This funding led by a mix of existing and new investors including Tier I venture capital and private equity players, will be the last private round before the company files its DRHP for IPO. The public listing is expected to happen in H1 2026.
A Platform Bridging Faith and Technology
Founded in 2017 by Puneet Gupta and Anmol Jain, AstroTalk has become India’s no.1 digital astrology service provider, connecting users to over 45,000 spiritual practitioners. These include astrologers, tarot readers, numerologists and Vastu experts who offer consultations through chat, audio and video. The platform earns through service commissions, with users paying for personalized guidance in areas such as career, marriage, health, and relationships.
Robust Financial Performance
AstroTalk’s surge in valuation is underpinned by its impressive financial growth over the last two fiscal years. According to internal data reviewed by multiple outlets:
- In FY24, the company generated INR 651 crore in revenue with INR 100 crore in net profit.
- In FY25, revenue nearly doubled to INR 1,182 crore, and net profit surged to over INR 250 crore.
This is a big milestone in India’s consumer-tech space, where many high-growth companies are not profitable.
Diversification Into D2C Commerce
AstroTalk has gone beyond its core astrology business and has forayed into spiritual and wellness e-commerce. Its D2C vertical, launched in September 2024, has puja bookings, gemstones, astrological remedies and other spiritual products. According to co-founder Anmol Jain, this vertical is already profitable and will contribute 25-30% of overall revenue in the near term.
The company has also bolstered its leadership to support this diversification. Earlier in 2025, Damandeep Singh Soni, former President and CBO of GlobalBees, was appointed to lead the D2C arm—AstroTalk Store. Additionally, Siddharth Prakash Singh, a former Google executive, joined as the company’s first Chief Technology Officer.
IPO and Market Dynamics
AstroTalk’s planned IPO would mark a historic milestone as the first venture-funded astrology platform in India to go public. This comes amid a broader trend of renewed investor interest in profitable tech startups, especially in consumer-facing sectors. Should it successfully list, AstroTalk would join other Indian unicorns of 2025 such as Jumbotail, Drools, Porter, Netradyne, and Juspay.
But the company faces competition in the online astrology space from platforms like AstroYogi, AstroSage, GaneshaSpeaks, InstraAstro, and Shaadi.com’s AstroChat.
Funding History and Outlook
AstroTalk last raised USD 14 million (~INR 120 crore) in June 2024, taking its total funding to USD 34 million (~INR 292 crore) till date. Existing investors include Left Lane Capital, Elev8 Capital and QED Innovation Labs.
The current USD 50 million (~INR 429 crore) fundraise is relatively small compared to AstroTalk’s growth but will strengthen the company’s balance sheet, IPO preparations and product expansion.
As the discussions are on and due diligence is underway, the fundraise is expected to close in the next few months. For more details related to IPO GMP, SEBI IPO Approval, and Live Subscription, stay tuned to IPO Central.
