Rezolv Secures $3.5 Million in Seed Funding

The platform operates purely as a software and analytics solution.

Rezolv, a debt resolution platform catering to banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) has raised $3.5 million in a seed funding round led by 3one4 Capital.

Founded in October 2024 by Karan Mehta and Sonali Jindal, who previously co-founded the digital lending startup Kissht, Rezolv leverages advanced analytics, AI, and GenAI to enhance debt recovery processes. The platform operates purely as a software and analytics solution.

Rezolv aims to streamline the debt collection cycle by integrating digital communication, automated reminders, interactive voice response (IVR) calls, field visits, legal workflows, and analytics, enabling lenders to create efficient and policy-compliant collection systems.

One of its standout features is real-time AI auditing, which monitors customer interactions with agents or the system, flagging potential violations of lender policies. By consolidating collections, legal case management, and customer interactions into a single platform, Rezolv eliminates the inefficiencies of using multiple tools. AI-driven data analytics further enhance the recovery process by analyzing customer behaviour and payment patterns.

A key innovation is Rezolv’s AI-powered early warning score, which helps lenders identify potential defaulters before they miss a payment. By predicting at-risk borrowers and segmenting them based on behaviour and payment intent, the platform optimizes recovery strategies while reducing costs.

The system also enables lenders to intervene early with personalized nudges, payment plan restructuring, or alternative repayment options before resorting to aggressive collection tactics. Its flagship product, Strategy Builder, allows lenders to design and automate workflows, leveraging AI-driven optimizations to improve outcomes within one to three months.

Rezolv aspires to become the industry standard by offering an all-in-one platform that integrates digital communication, field collections, legal workflows, and analytics. It will compete with established players such as Credgenics, Spocto, and Creditas in the debt resolution space.

Ali Waghbakriwala

MeitY Startup Hub (MSH) has joined with the Startup Policy Forum (SPF) to encourage technological innovation and support deeptech startups.

The collaboration will concentrate on companies in several industries, including artificial intelligence, deep technology, and other developing technologies.

SPF will assist MSH with a number of projects, including joint research, policy analysis, and stakeholder engagement.

MSH, on the other hand, plans to support SPF’s efforts, such as TIDE 2.0 Centres, incubators, and Centres of Excellence. The government-run organization will also facilitate networking opportunities.

MeitY Startup Hub chief executive officer Panneerselvam Madanagopal said, “This partnership with the Startup Policy Forum aligns policy, innovation, and entrepreneurship to unlock that potential. By uniting diverse expertise across sectors, we aim to create new economic opportunities and establish India as a global technology leader.”

Meanwhile, Shweta Rajpal Kohli, president and CEO of the Startup Policy Forum, stated that AI and deeptech are not just the next step toward innovation, but also the foundation for future industry transformation. 

SPF, founded by Kohli in December 2024, is a startup organization dedicated to encouraging constructive collaboration among entrepreneurs, politicians, and regulators.

SPF’s initial members include companies and unicorns such as Razorpay, CRED, Pine Labs, Groww, Acko, OYO, Swiggy, Practo, Dream11, MPL, and others. 

Furthermore, SPF is actively working with government agencies such as the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) to boost the Indian startup ecosystem.

SPF and DPIIT partnered in January to develop specialized immersive programs that link international investors with India’s flourishing startup scene.

Recently, the startup body conducted research on startup finance in partnership with the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras.

According to DPIIT data, India has more than 1.61 lakh startups as of January 31, 2025.

In the meantime, the government is launching a number of programs to support the expansion of the deeptech industry in the nation.

For example, Nirmala Sitharaman, the finance minister, stated in her budget address for the fiscal year 2025–2026 (FY26) that the government will consider creating a fund of funds (FoF) for the deeptech industry in order to assist the upcoming generation of companies.

Additionally, the Budget said that INR 20,000 Cr had been set aside to support research and innovation.

Optimized Electrotech Raises $6 Million in Series A to Advance AI Surveillance and Space Tech

Ali Waghbakriwala

Optimized Electrotech, a deeptech surveillance startup, has secured $6 million in a Series A funding round co-led by Blume Ventures and Mela Ventures. The round also drew support from returning investors such as Venture Catalysts, 100 Unicorns, and Rajiv Dadlani Group, along with personal investment from cofounder and Managing Director Sandeep Shah.

The startup will use the funds to accelerate the development of AI-powered imaging payloads and high-speed surveillance systems for space applications. It also plans to expand its presence in international markets.

According to Shah, the funding will bolster the company’s R&D capabilities, support the rollout of next-generation technologies, and expand its footprint across key sectors in India and globally. The company is also gearing up to launch a new subsidiary focused on the space tech domain and is eyeing an additional $5 million raise in the next six months, primarily from semiconductor industry players.

Founded in 2017 by Sandeep Shah, Anil Yekkala, Dharin Shah, Kuldeep Saxena, and Purvi Shah, Optimized Electrotech develops electro-optic imaging systems for defence, aerospace, and border security. Its AI-driven platforms are designed to help government bodies, military, paramilitary forces, and mining companies tackle threats like unauthorized drone incursions.

The company operates in the multi-spectral imaging space, competing with industry leaders such as Bharat Electronics and Tata Advanced Systems.

On the financial front, the company reported a revenue dip in FY25 to Rs 3 crore, down from Rs 4.4 crore in the previous year. Net losses also widened to Rs 8 crore from Rs 5.7 crore in FY24.

The funding comes amid growing interest in deeptech startups, with increased attention from both investors and government bodies. In 2024, the Indian deeptech ecosystem saw $460 million raised across 78 deals. Netradyne, another deeptech venture, became the sole unicorn in the space during the year.

The government has also been encouraging a shift in the startup ecosystem toward high-impact sectors such as semiconductors, robotics, and deeptech. Union Minister Piyush Goyal recently highlighted the importance of moving beyond low-value businesses and prioritizing innovation-driven growth. Meanwhile, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman proposed a new Rs 10,000 crore fund for startups in the 2025 Budget, alongside an additional Rs 10,000 crore for SIDBI’s startup initiative, taking the total to Rs 20,000 crore.

Xindus Raises $10 Million to Scale Cross-Border Logistics for SMEs

Ali Waghbakriwala

Gurugram-based cross-border logistics startup Xindus has secured $10 million (approximately Rs  83.5 crore) in a Series A funding round led by 3one4 Capital. The round also saw participation from Orios Venture Partners, along with existing backers Shastra VC and Caret Capital.

The company plans to deploy the fresh funds to expand its operations over the next 12–18 months, aiming to grow its gross merchandise value (GMV) from $30 million to $200 million.

Cofounder Saurabh Goyal highlighted that this funding round marks a crucial step toward building the necessary infrastructure for Indian SMEs to compete globally. He noted that evolving trade regulations often hinder growth, and Xindus aims to simplify this landscape.

Founded in 2022 by Goyal, Madan Mohan, Jaikaar Singh, and Saptarshi Datta, Xindus offers a full-stack logistics platform. Its services include shipping, warehousing, compliance, returns management, and financial solutions—primarily catering to SMEs in sectors like fashion, home decor, jewellery, wellness, and Ayurveda, as well as D2C brands expanding internationally.

The investment comes amid a surge in interest in India’s logistics sector, which is gaining momentum alongside the country’s rising export ambitions. A report by Protium predicts that MSMEs will account for 45% of India’s exports, placing the country 9th globally in cross-border trade growth.

This funding trend aligns with broader sector activity, as several logistics firms prepare for IPOs. Shiprocket, for example, rebranded as “Shiprocket Limited” in January in anticipation of its public debut. Shadowfax also converted to a public entity last month, eyeing an IPO in the Rs  2,500–3,000 crore range after raising Rs  65.4 crore from its cofounders at a $750 million valuation.

In a strategic move, Delhivery recently acquired Ecom Express for $165 million to enhance its last-mile delivery capabilities. Additionally, the Indian government is working to reposition India Post as a major logistics player to boost rural commerce and SME growth, as announced in the Union Budget 2025–26.

According to Mordor Intelligence, India’s logistics industry is projected to grow from $349.4 billion in 2025 to $545.6 billion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of 9.32%. The e-commerce logistics segment alone is expected to grow from $3.98 billion in 2024 to $10.40 billion by 2033.
