• India has seen a great 2019, with several startups joining the unicorn club.
• But the last decade has truly been the decade of startups.
• Here’s a look at the top 10 most funded startups of since 2010, according to data sourced from Tracxn.

Indian startups are closing the decade with a bang. India will enter 2020 with a tag of being the world’s third largest startup ecosystem. This year, eight startups joined the unicorn club taking the number of total unicorns to over 30. And, 50 more lined up as soonicorns or soon-to-be unicorns.

It is not just the year, the decade itself brought a crucial change into the startup ecosystem. It was longer a silent watcher of the internet boom but became an important part of the digital growth.

India’s startups have captured the attention of consumers and money bags – the VCs and PE firms, alike. It is not just Indian investors but global investors are increasing positions into the country’s innovators.

The noise around the startup ecosystem in India, saw the entry of not just global startups in India but also of international VC firms who set up shop in the country.

This decade, the country’s biggest e-commerce deal ever was executed as Walmart acquired 75% of Flipkart in 2018.

As 2019 comes to an end, here’s a look at the top 10 most funded startups of the decade, according to data sourced from Tracxn.
