Customer onboarding platform, Rocketlane, has raised $18 Mn as part of its Series A funding round. The round was led by 8VC, among other institutional investors.

Nexus Venture Partners, Matrix Partners India, and Gokul Rajaram also participated in this round of funding. 

The new funding round comes barely seven months after the startup announced its seed funding round during which it raised $3 Mn from Matrix Partners India and Nexus Ventures Partners. With this round, the startup has so far raised $21 Mn in funding.

The funding will be used by the startup to expand product offerings, accelerate marketing and expand the team.

On the same lines, Indian SaaS companies are scaling up their products and offering tough competition back home. In 2021, more than 35 Indian SaaS companies had above $20 Mn ARR – a sevenfold increase in the last 5 years.

between 2014 and 2021, Indian enterprise tech startups have raised more than $9 Bn in funding across 1,200+ deals. The sector is amongst the top-funded sectors for a couple of quarters now. A slew of SaaS companies is also heading for IPOs post Freshworks’ stellar debut.
