The amount raised from 125 deals represents an over 32% increase from December&#8217;s $1.38 billion secured from 98 transactions, according to proprietary data collated by DealStreetAsia.<\/p><p>There were 16 transactions in January that did not disclose the funding size.<\/p><p>On a year-on-year basis, the funding value grew more than 2.5x from $703 million in January 2024. The deal volume was, however, up 26% on a year-on-year comparison.<\/p><p>Funding was subdued for most of 2023 and the beginning of 2024 due to a prolonged funding winter and macroeconomic uncertainties. However, Indian startups raised a total of $16.3 billion from 1,267 deals in 2024, marking an increase of 38% in value over 2023, while the deal volume was up nearly 35%.
