Traya in talks to raise around ₹300 Cr from Verlinvest at a ₹2,500 Cr to ₹3,000 Cr valuation
Our read
Traya more likely than not closes a Verlinvest-led round of roughly ₹300 Cr or more, though the gap between its revenue rate and FY25 reported revenue will shape the final valuation.
For operators
Traya is in talks to raise about ₹300 Cr, which would give a hair care rival already growing 43% more money to spend on customer acquisition and channel expansion, so operators in the category should expect tougher competition.
Watch
Announced round size above the ~₹300 Cr in talks, at the formal close, would mean Verlinvest is paying up and rivals face a better-funded Traya.
