Companies such as Outzidr, RBH Solutions, and Xovian among others secure funding in their initial stages
In a series of recent developments, several startups in India have announced new funding rounds and outlined their plans for business expansion, product development, and team growth. Among these, Outzidr has provided the most detailed information about how it will use its early-stage funding.
Outzidr, a digital-first fashion brand catering to Gen Z women aged 18-28 years, has raised Rs 27 crore in a pre-Series A round led by RTP Global. The funding round also saw participation from existing investor Stellaris Venture Partners. With this new infusion of capital, Outzidr plans to launch its first exclusive offline store by March 2026 and fuel the expansion of its design, operations, and technology teams. The company, which operates out of Bengaluru and Gurugram, aims to strengthen its rapid delivery capabilities and align its growth strategy with the fast fashion segment targeting Gen Z women in India.
While information on the specific allocation of funds for other startups was not readily available, here's a brief overview of the companies that have recently secured funding:

The company supplies single-origin, chemical-free mangoes and derivatives to North America and Europe.
- NPrep, which is building an AI-powered skilling platform for nursing students and professionals, has raised an undisclosed amount in a pre-seed funding round.
