“Gynoveda has so far improved the health of 3 lakh women residing in 20,000 pincodes of India. This led to the company tripling its revenue year-on-year between FY20 and FY23 to reach ₹100 crores annual revenue run rate within 3 years of its inception,” co-founder and CEO Vishal Gupta said.

The company aims to use the fresh capital to double down on strengthening research and development, formulating new ayurvedic offerings, onboarding talent, expanding distribution channels and increasing brand awareness. It also plans a move in the offline market.

Currently Gynoveda has a little over 50 members in staff.
