[Weekly Funding Roundup] Indian startups sees modest venture capital rise; 30 early-stage startups raise funds

As we approach the end of February, the Indian startup ecosystem continues to see muted venture capital investment as recent global developments, including the Russia - Ukraine conflict, continue to create a sense of uncertainty.

The last week of February saw total venture funding of $509 million — a modest rise as compared to $375 million in the previous week — and 30 out of 39 transactions in the early-stage category.

The next few weeks will be crucial for the world's third-largest startup ecosystem. Following the recent global developments, investors may remain bearish and focus more on unit economics and the road to profitability.
