Inamo announced it has raised $8 million in a Series A round led by Prime Venture Partners, with participation from its current investors Shastra VC, Antler India, and Gemba Capital. The round includes $6 million in equity and $2 million in venture debt. Inamo will use the fresh capital to expand its dark store network, accelerate the onboarding of brands, and support its foray into new categories as it enters its next phase of growth.
Within 18 months of operations, Inamo has expanded its presence to six metro cities, processing over 1.8 million orders a month. This rapid scale has translated into strong financial momentum, with ARR increasing more than 10x over the past 10 months (vs March 2025). The current funding will allow Inamo to further support expansion to the next 10 cities and increase its footprint to over 200 dark stores by the end of 2026.
The company will also use these funds to strengthen its technology and operations capabilities while working to democratize quick commerce. This will allow brands easier access to technology while scaling profitably through reduced inventory duplication and minimal upfront investments.
Commenting on the development, Sumit Anand, Co-founder & CEO, Inamo, said, “Quick commerce has permanently reset consumer expectations. What’s lagging isn’t demand, but the infrastructure supporting it. Established brands and platforms are still recalibrating their legacy fulfilment models for a channel that requires speed and data integration by design. Inamo is building that backbone to modernise systems by providing purpose-built full-stack capabilities in quick commerce. That structural shift will help brands - both current and new - scale up faster and will define how brands compete in this next phase of retail.”
Rupesh Thakare, Co-founder, Inamo, added, “The future of quick commerce will be shaped by better technology and smarter network design. By solving core challenges such as inventory placement and demand aggregation, we aim to make quick commerce more efficient and accessible for brands. This investment allows us to accelerate our technology roadmap and build long-term infrastructure for the ecosystem.”
Brij Bhushan, Managing Partner, Prime Venture Partners, said, “Inamo is building critical infrastructure for the next wave of e-commerce in India. Their ability to combine deep operational execution with a modular technology stack while scaling rapidly makes them uniquely positioned in a large, fast-growing market. We’re excited to partner with the team as they expand their footprint and become the category-defining enabler for quick commerce.”
Founded in 2024, Inamo has rapidly scaled to become one of the largest quick commerce enablement players in India, working with some of India’s leading brands and quick commerce platforms. It raised $3 million in seed funding in September 2025, led by Shastra VC, with participation from Antler India, Gemba Capital, and Scope Promoters. The company currently operates a network of more than 80 dark stores across six cities.
