Kolkata-based spiritual and devotion platform Utsav has raised Rs 36 crore ($3.8 million) in a Series A round led by Atomic Capital, with existing investors India Quotient and Equanimity Investments also participating.
The latest round takes Utsav’s total capital raised to Rs 42 crore, including Rs 6.35 crore funding in January 2025. The company plans to use the fresh funds to expand its temple network, strengthen its technology and fulfilment capabilities, and scale its team.
Founded by Sourajit Basu, Ankita De and Prajata Samanta, Utsav works with temple priests, scholars and acharyas to offer devotional services through its platform. Its offerings include puja bookings, pujari consultations, e-prasad, consecrated prasad and personalised rituals.
Additionally, the business wants to extend its services to the Indian diaspora, allowing devotees from other countries to take part in ceremonies at temples all throughout the nation.
According to Sourajit Basu, CEO and co-founder of Utsav, the company’s goal is to increase accessibility to religious experiences without sacrificing their holiness and authenticity.
Over the next 12 to 24 months, the firm intends to invest on personalization, discovery, logistics, and fulfillment while growing its temple network and services.
According to the company, since its last investment round of Rs 6.35 crore in February 2025, its income has increased eight times. Currently, it completes over 2.5 lakh orders every month.
Vama.app, AppsForBharat, Astrotalk, Astroyogi, DevDham, and other companies are competitors of Utsav.
