Women-centric social community platform Pankhuri today announced a $3.2 million (around Rs 23.8 crore) fundraising led by Surge, a rapid scale-up programme by Sequoia Capital India for startups in India and Southeast Asia, and joined by India Quotient, Taurus Ventures and angel investors.
Pankhuri, founded in 2019, is a platform for women in India to network, learn and shop through live streaming, chat, and cohort-based sessions, enabling them to be active participants in beauty and lifestyle conversations online instead of being passive consumers.
The startup has a completion rate of 95% for its live streamed sessions and a community of over 250,000 active women.
