New Delhi-based agritech company Arya.ag has raised Rs 725 crore, or about $80.3 million, in its Series D funding round, led by GEF Capital Partners. The investment marks a significant milestone for the company as it looks to expand its presence and impact across India’s agricultural ecosystem.
The funding comes at a time when technology-driven solutions are playing a growing role in addressing challenges faced by farmers, particularly in post-harvest management, access to finance, and market connectivity.
Second major fundraise within a year
Over the past year, Arya.ag has completed multiple funding initiatives to support its expansion strategy. In July 2025, the company raised $29 million through an equity round. In addition, its agri-commerce subsidiary, Aryatech, secured a $19.8 million commitment from the US International Development Finance Corporation to guarantee a debt facility.
Together, these fundraises highlight sustained investor confidence in Arya.ag’s business model and its ability to combine technology, finance, and physical infrastructure within the agricultural supply chain.
Focus on farmers, FPOs, and climate-smart practices
According to the company, the fresh Series D proceeds will be used to deepen engagement with farmers and farmer producer organisations. A key focus area will be the expansion of climate-smart agriculture initiatives aimed at improving resilience and efficiency at the farm level.
The company also plans to strengthen its technology-led offerings across the post-harvest supply chain. This includes efforts to reduce losses at the farm gate and during storage and transportation, while improving access to finance and reliable market linkages for smallholder farmers.
Integrated platform across the agri value chain
Founded in 2013 by Prasanna Rao, Anand Chandra, and Chattanathan Devarajan, Arya.ag operates an integrated grain commerce platform that spans multiple stages of the agricultural lifecycle. Its services cover pre-harvest advisory, scientific storage, financing, and trade.
The platform is designed to give farmers greater control over when and where they sell their produce. This is supported by farm-level data, warehousing infrastructure, and access to credit, allowing farmers to make informed decisions and potentially improve price realisation.

Expansive physical and digital infrastructure
Arya.ag runs a nationwide network of Smart Farm Centres that provide a range of services, including agri storage, instant financing, and transparent market access. These centres act as touchpoints for farmers, helping bridge gaps between production, storage, finance, and trade.
Currently, the platform operates across around 60 percent of India’s districts. It is supported by a network of nearly 12,000 agri-warehouses, forming one of the largest such ecosystems in the country. Through this infrastructure, Arya.ag handles close to $3 billion worth of grain transactions annually.
The company has also enabled more than $1.5 billion in agricultural loans, reflecting its growing role in improving formal credit access for farmers and agri stakeholders.
Strong financial performance underpins growth
Arya.ag’s recent financial performance reflects the scale and momentum of its operations. For the fiscal year ended March 2025, the company reported revenue of Rs 447 crore. During the same period, its profits increased by 70 percent year-on-year.
The growth trend continued into the current fiscal year. In the first half of FY26, Arya.ag reported a profit of Rs 32 crore, indicating sustained operational strength as the company scales its platform and services.
Positioning for the next phase of expansion
With the Series D funding in place, Arya.ag is positioning itself for its next phase of growth, centred on deeper farmer engagement, stronger climate-aligned practices, and broader adoption of its technology-driven solutions. By combining physical infrastructure with data, finance, and market access, the company aims to address structural inefficiencies in India’s agricultural supply chain while supporting income stability for farmers.
As agritech continues to attract attention from global investors, Arya.ag’s latest funding round reinforces its role as a key player in building scalable, farmer-focused solutions within India’s evolving agricultural economy.
