Frequently Asked Questions
How are Indian startups valued at seed stage?
Seed stage valuation is primarily based on team quality, market size, and traction. Pre-revenue B2B SaaS often gets ₹3-8Cr pre-money; consumer apps ₹2-5Cr.
What is post-money valuation?
Post-money = Pre-money + Investment amount. If your startup is valued at ₹10Cr pre-money and you raise ₹2Cr, post-money valuation = ₹12Cr.
