AstroTalk Eyes Unicorn Status with $100M Funding Talks

Editor Desk

India’s booming astrotech sector may soon welcome its first publicly listed startup, as AstroTalk, the leading astrology-focused platform, is reportedly in mid-stage discussions to raise between $50–100 million in a new funding round. This comes after a 12-month funding gap and signals a major leap toward its planned IPO in early 2026, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The Noida-based company is said to be targeting a valuation in the range of $1.3 to $1.5 billion, a fivefold jump from its last known valuation of $300 million during its $14 million raise in June 2024. If the deal closes at the projected valuation, AstroTalk will join the unicorn club, alongside other breakout names of 2025 like Jumbotail, Drools, Porter, and Netradyne.

“The discussions are ongoing with multiple investors, including a few existing backers,” a source disclosed, noting that this round will likely be the final private raise before AstroTalk files its DRHP (Draft Red Herring Prospectus) in the coming months.

So far, AstroTalk has raised $34 million from investors including Left Lane Capital and Elev8 Capital.

Founded by Puneet Gupta, AstroTalk has grown from a digital astrology consultation platform to a profitable consumer-tech giant, catering to India’s long-standing spiritual and wellness demands through a modern, mobile-first approach.

The platform hosts a vast network of over 45,000 professionals, offering services from astrology and tarot reading to numerology, Vastu, and spiritual remedies. With accessible consultations via app, web, phone, and chat, AstroTalk is redefining how younger generations approach traditional wisdom.

Its financial trajectory has been nothing short of impressive:

  • FY24 Revenue: ₹651 crore
  • FY24 Profit: ₹100 crore
  • FY25 Revenue: ₹1,182 crore
  • FY25 Profit: ₹250 crore

These numbers underscore the platform’s strong unit economics, setting it apart in India’s consumer-tech landscape—particularly within the niche but rapidly expanding astrotech space.

To diversify its portfolio, AstroTalk recently forayed into direct-to-consumer (D2C) offerings. The new vertical includes puja services, gemstones, spiritual remedies, and wellness products. Co-founder Anmol Jain shared that the D2C vertical is expected to contribute 25–30% of the company’s total revenue while maintaining profitability.

This move places AstroTalk in a unique position: combining high-margin, trust-driven spiritual products with the scale of tech-enabled service delivery.

AstroTalk’s upcoming IPO could mark a significant milestone, making it the first venture-backed online astrology platform in India to go public. With profitability, scale, and a defensible niche, the startup is well-positioned to attract retail and institutional investors looking for exposure to India’s spiritual-tech sector.

If successful, the IPO would validate a category that was once seen as fringe—and now, thanks to platforms like AstroTalk, is gaining mainstream and global investor attention.

As the company gears up for public markets, its competitors Astrosage, Astroyogi, GaneshaSpeaks, and InstraAstro—will likely be watching closely.
