The series D funding round also saw participation from the startup’s existing investors Sequoia Capital, Hummingbird Ventures and Epiq Capital.

The services include diagnostics support, health-insurance claim processing, hospital admission paperwork, cab pick-up and drop for surgery, medicine delivery at home and free post-surgery consultation. The company claims to have a network of over 300 surgeons and has completed 300,000 surgeries through its platform. “By using technology to deliver differentiated experiences and outcomes, Pristyn Care has built the leading consumer-centric surgery provider in India. The market opportunity is huge, and we couldn't be more excited to partner with Harsimarbir (Singh) and his team,” said Scott Shleifer, of Tiger Global Management, in a statement. The startup offers over 50 surgeries and treatments, and is present in over 30 cities in India. With new funds in hand, Pristyn Care now aims to offer new surgery specialities with better patient care practices, advance medical technology and minimally invasive surgeries and to expand further in India. “With this new capital, we plan to expand our surgery offerings in more cities and towns and attract international patients seeking treatment in India, treat new disease lines, and invest in brand building. We run over 100 clinics and operate in over 400 hospitals to impart patient-first care for our surgery patients,” said Singh, in a statement.

Zepto is rapidly expanding its network of dark stores, which currently stands at 370, according to a report in The Hindu. The company plans to increase this to approximately 700 stores by March 2025, thereby strengthening its presence across the top 20 cities in India. In June, Zepto reported crossing the $1 billion mark in annualized Gross Merchandise Value (GMV). Founded in 2021 by Stanford University dropouts Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra, Zepto has rapidly grown into a leading player in the quick commerce sector, drawing significant attention from investors and industry watchers alike.

The company's funding round also included former investors such as Dragoneer Investment Group, Franklin Templeton and EPIQ Capital Group. SpotOn, which provides payments and software services for small-to-medium businesses in the US, claims to have grown revenues by 150% in 2019 and has had a strong start to 2020."We had an incredible 2019 and a great start to 2020, linear growth is interesting but we are going for exponential growth," SpotOn president RJ Horsley told Business Insider in an interview. "We couldn't be more excited by the team we have on board as investors, these guys were fundamental at Twitter during its scale period, and our prior investors are very sharp too."Founded by twin brothers Zach and Matt Hyman, serial entrepreneurs with 20 years of experience in the payments space from previous companies, and Doron Friedman in 2010, SpotOn has around 850 employees. The company plans to use its funding to continue to supporting medium-sized businesses, which it claims are poorly served by payments companies. "We want to put ourselves in the shoes of our customers, these are real businesses that might have been around for a generation and don't have a 20 person team to do marketing, sales, review management, and emails," Horsley added. "Payments is a commodity and people need innovative tools to help them run their business."Much of SpotOn's focus has been on the food and drink industry but the firm hopes the new funding can be used to expand into new verticals.SpotOn is headquartered in San Francisco with product, technology and operations teams in Chicago, Detroit and Denver, as well as newly opened offices in Mexico and Poland.Check out SpotOn's (redacted) pitch deck below:
