Balwaan Krishi, a Jaipur-based agritech startup, has raised $2 million (around Rs 16.5 crore) as a part of its pre-Series A funding round led by Caspian Equity’s agriculture-focused fund Caspian Leap for Agriculture Fund. 

Several angel investors, including Deepak Agarwal (Bikaji group), Rishab Jain (Bikaji) and Pulkit Bachhawat (Right Pillar Advisors), among others, also participated in the funding round.

As per the startup, the freshly raised funds will be used to develop new products and establish a pan-India distribution network for their existing products.

Additionally, the startup also plans to offer consumer finance options to farmers to simplify their purchases through EMI plans, along with establishing an Indian language after-sale service center.
