Arya.ag’s Rs 725 Crore Series D Marks a Major Boost for Farmer-Centric Agritech Innovation Startup Stories

New Delhi-based agritech firm Arya.ag has raised Rs 725 crore (approximately $80.3 million) in its Series D funding round, led by GEF Capital Partners, marking a significant milestone in its mission to build farmer-centric, technology-driven agricultural ecosystems in India.

The fresh capital will be deployed to deepen Arya.ag’s engagement with farmers and Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs), expand climate-smart agriculture initiatives, and strengthen technology-led solutions across the post-harvest value chain. The company also aims to reduce farm-gate and supply-chain losses while improving access to finance, storage, and transparent market linkages for smallholder farmers.

Founded in 2013 by Prasanna Rao, Anand Chandra, and Chattanathan Devarajan, Arya.ag operates an integrated grain commerce platform spanning pre-harvest advisory, warehousing, financing, and trade. Its model empowers farmers to decide when and where to sell their produce, backed by real-time farm-level data and credit access.

Arya.ag currently operates across 60% of Indian districts, manages a network of 12,000 agri-warehouses, handles nearly $3 billion worth of grain annually, and enables over $1.5 billion in agricultural loans. For FY25, the company reported Rs 447 crore in revenue, with profits growing 70% year-on-year, underscoring its strong execution and scalable impact.
