What a way to close the month.
The final funding week of November didn’t just close the month, it rewrote the month’s leaderboard.

With ₹1,911 Cr raised across 32 deals, this became the highest deal-count week of November 2025, proving once again that founders who keep building win, even when the market moves in slow motion.

From real estate to rockets and wealth-tech, capital this week didn’t favour noise, it favoured clarity, conviction, and scale.

Let’s dive into the Top 5 funding blockbusters of the week 👇


1) Ace International – ₹312.38 Cr

Deal Date: 27 Nov 2025
Incorporated on: 10 Feb 2025
Location: New Delhi

Ace International kicked off the week like a statement. With ₹312.38 Cr led by global powerhouses including FMO, responsAbility Investments, Incofin, and Fiedlin Ventures, the company reinforced one truth, urban transformation is not a buzzword; it’s a global priority.

From housing scale-ups to urban expansion, Ace is proving that infrastructure startups are very much the new darlings of institutional investors.


2) Square Yards – ₹312.38 Cr

Deal Date: 27 Nov 2025
Incorporated on: 12 Aug 2014
Location: Gurgaon

When a startup matches the week’s top raise to the last decimal, it becomes the headline.

Square Yards continues to sharpen its stronghold on the proptech + NRI real estate ecosystem, raising ₹312.38 Cr from Smilegate Investment and other undisclosed investors.
What stands out is the consistency, SqY isn’t chasing valuation; it’s chasing market share, and clearly, investors like that story.


3) Neo Investment Value Advisors – ₹221.21 Cr

Deal Date: 25 Nov 2025
Incorporated on: 10 Sep 2021
Location: Mumbai

Neo is riding a macro wave: Indians are getting richer, and they want smarter ways to invest.

With ₹221.21 Cr raised from Crystal Investment Advisors and Morde Foods, the firm is accelerating its ambition of becoming the institutional backbone of India’s wealth management revolution.
This isn’t a high-burn fintech, this is a steady, strategy-heavy wealth engine.


4) Agnikul Cosmos – ₹150.79 Cr

Deal Date: 22 Nov 2025
Incorporated on: 01 Dec 2017
Location: Chennai

Nothing energizes Indian tech like space tech, and Agnikul delivered again.

Raising ₹150.79 Cr from Advendza Global, Artha Venture Fund, 100X.VC, HDFC Bank, Prathithi Ventures, and Althara Green Ecotech Fund, the company reasserted why it’s among India’s most closely tracked deep-tech startups.

Agnikul isn’t building rockets.
It’s building India’s gateway to low-cost, high-frequency commercial launches.


5) Wealthy – ₹130 Cr (Series B)

Deal Date: 24 Nov 2025
Incorporated on: 19 Aug 2015
Location: Bengaluru

Fintech found its voice this week too.

Wealthy secured ₹130 Cr (Series B) from Bertelsmann India Investments, Shepherd’s Hill Group, and Alpha Wave Global, strengthening its hybrid advisory business model. In a sector crowded with “apps”, Wealthy stands apart as a human-plus-tech wealth companion, not a transactional broker.


Zooming Out – What Does This Week Tell Us?

In a period where founders are cautious and investors are selective, this week had its own message:

⚡ If the business is real, the capital shows up.
⚡ If the fundamentals are clear, the valuation follows, not the other way around.
⚡ If users love it, investors don’t wait for the market mood.

And most importantly:

This week closed November with the highest number of deals in the entire month.
Not because capital suddenly became abundant, but because quality startups kept building regardless of the noise.


Final Note

Some weeks report funding.
This week defined sentiment.

As December kicks in, the energy is clear:
Expect fewer vanity rounds. Expect more conviction rounds. Expect more real business.

Because India’s startup ecosystem is no longer chasing funding momentum,
💡 it is chasing product momentum.
