[Weekly funding roundup June 6-10] Capital inflows continue to rise

It’s been a busy week for India’s startup ecosystem, which has seen the emergence of two unicorns – private companies valued at $1 billion and above – in the form of PhysicsWallah and Purple. Additionally, venture capital funding has topped $500 million in the past week, sounding the trumpet for good days ahead.

June continues to be a bullish month for Indian startups, with the second week of the month seeing an influx of venture capital from $507 million distributed 32 offers. In the previous comparable week, the amount was $326 million.

These developments bring relief to Indian startups, as the ecosystem has been dominated by news of employee layoffs and companies taking cost-cutting measures.

However, it remains to be seen whether this trend will continue in the near future, as other broader macro signals in terms of economic growth forecasts or inflation rates are not really encouraging. These will impact the startup ecosystem in terms of capital inflow.
