March 26, 2025: VAHDAM® India, a leading Indian wellness brand bringing the country’s finest teas, herbs, and botanicals to global markets, has raised $3 million (~₹25 crore) in funding from SIDBI Venture Capital.
This equity raise is a strategic investment and not part of a formal funding round, as the company is already well-capitalized. The investment will further strengthen VAHDAM’s balance sheet and cash reserves. The company is also set to close the current fiscal year with strong growth and positive EBITDA.
Commenting on the investment, Bala Sarda, Founder & CEO of VAHDAM® India, said:
“I am excited to welcome SIDBI Venture Capital to our capital table as we continue our journey of taking the finest Indian products to the world. The funds raised will strengthen our balance sheet and cash reserves. Over the past two years, we have focused on reinforcing our core, optimizing our product portfolio, and identifying key levers for scale. The company is also making significant investments in product innovation, R&D, and expanding our in-house manufacturing capabilities. With a sharper focus and a more resilient foundation, we are well-positioned for sustained growth over the next three years.”
Arup Kumar, Managing Director, SIDBI Ventures, added:
“VAHDAM® India is a pioneer and a flagbearer of young Indian companies taking homegrown products to the world through a disruptive supply chain model and strong operational capabilities. We are thrilled to invest in Bala and VAHDAM India as they continue to set new benchmarks in building a resilient and impactful business while driving significant innovation and value creation in India’s agricultural ecosystem.”
