Arya.ag Raises Rs 725 crore to Support Indian Farmers and Agriculture

New Delhi-based agritech company Arya.ag has successfully raised Rs 725 crore (approximately $80.3 million) during its Series D funding round led by GEF Capital Partners. Recently, Startup Superb had reported that GEF Capital was taking the lead in this funding round for Arya.ag. Over the last year, Arya.ag has undertaken two fundraising initiatives. In July 2025, the firm secured $29 million in an equity round, while Arya.ag’s agri-commerce division, Aryatech, garnered a commitment of $19.8 million from the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) for a debt facility guarantee.

Utilisation of Funds for Farmers and Technology

The newly acquired funds will aid in enhancing Arya.ag’s outreach to farmers and farmer producer organisations (FPOs). It will also focus on expanding initiatives related to climate-smart agriculture and fortifying its technology-driven solutions across the post-harvest supply chain. Furthermore, the company intends to utilise these funds to mitigate farm-gate and supply-chain losses, whilst also increasing access to finance and market connections for smallholder farmers.
